Mac crashes every time my WD Passport is connected and the Mac goes to sleep

If I have my WD Passport plugged in and the Mac goes to sleep, the system locks up and crashes every time. It’s infuriating. WD Discovery seems to have an update every other day but none of them are resolving this issue.

I’m on Mac OS 10.15 but it was happening on 10.14 also.
