Impact of Windows 10 Power Settings & USB3.0 Enclosure on 2.5 HDD Head Parking

Do the Windows 10 power settings model, brand, firmware, chip of the USB3.0 enclosure case influence whether the heads are parked or not parked on the 2.5" HDD after ejecting (safely removing hardware) from Windows and not disconnecting the USB cable from the PC/case after ejection?

They don't, the electronics in the hard drive do.

They are parked, the drive is disconnected from the host and waiting for the power to be turned off.

I use a USB3.0 enclosure case, brand and model Kesu 2530 and Orico 25PW1 black, I use 2.5" HDDs models and brands 2013 Seagate ST500LM030 and WDC WD10JPVX-08JC3T5, APPLE HDD HTS541010A99E662. In Windows 10 and other Windows, there is an eject function (safely remove hardware) when this function is executed and the HDD case does not appear in Windows, for example "E:" even with the USB3.0 cable connected to the PC on/case. After all this happened, my hand hit the USB3.0 enclosure case and it moved on the table. Did this hit cause friction between the 2.5" HDD read/write heads and the magnetic platters, scratching them?
