Parking HDDs when shutting down

Hi all!
Mi first post... thank for all the help I found lurking around here in the days.

Last week I finally built my piCorePlayer “all-in-one” system.
But since I know NOTHING about programming, I have a problem…
The system is composed by: Raspberry pi4b + Dac + a usb to dual SATA expansion + power management expansion for powering everything from a single source.

When I shutdown piCorePlayer from the menu the system go down, but the other boards and the HDDs remain on and if I press the general switch to power off I hear an horrible “TICK”: the bad sound of the HDD’s heads that roughly stop.
Could you help me and guide me to find a solution?
I think there could be a simple script to add for parking the HDDs while pCP is shutting down. But I really don’t know nothing about programming.
Thank you for your help and for your patience!

The specific hardware is:
Raspberry Pi4b / iQaudio Dac+ / GeekWorm X829 / GeekWorm X735 / Waveshare 4.3” touchscreen
