Question about Synology DS218play

I have attached an external WD Elements 4TB to this station. However, this hard drive does not go into hibernation mode. According to the internet, Synology does not support hibernation for this hard drive. Is there any way to adjust this? Or which hard drive (4TB) would go into hibernation mode?

Helpful answer
There is a list on Synology which external disks support hibernation mode.
Go to Settings > Hardware and Power > Hard Drive Hibernation > Set USB Hard Drive Time. Then the hibernation mode should work P.B

Thank you for the answer. I know this list, but the hard drives are outdated and are often no longer available.
