Hello,
I can not put my Seagate IronWolf NAS HDD ST4000VN008 - 4TB 5900rpm 64MB 3.5inch SATA600 into standby.
This is an extra HDD hard drive for NAS, it can not be that it does not support standby mode, or?

I am running a Raspberry Pi 3 B with Operating System: Debian Linux 9.4, Kernel and CPU: Linux 4.14.30-v7 + on armv7l, Processor information: ARMv7 Processor rev 4 (v7l) @ 76 bMips, 4 cores.

pi@myhomeserver:~ $ hdparm -V
hdparm v9.56

Output in the terminal:

pi@myhomeserver:~ $ sudo hdparm -y /dev/sda

/dev/sda:
 issuing standby command
