Yes, Synology have not tested them yet, but they are compatible. These are enterprise-class drives with much better performance compared to regular NAS drives.I hope this helps.

Hi, can you confirm that these HDDs WD181KFGX are supported by Synology NAS eg. 920+. Maybe what do you use?

Yes, it will work. Old DSM would scaremonger you into buying their Toshibas drives, but it will still work. Here is 1520+ with 18tb red pro https://www.reddit.com/r/synology/comments/s66kao/wd_red_pro_18tb_works_fine_with_1520/
I hope this helps.
