I just got a return from our engineers. Unfortunately the spin-down is not meant to be used with a cloud application. This one uses a service that will constantly check for updates. It may be put in the future an option to create a programming, but for now it is not yet planned.

Hello gdeguillebon,
It does appear that there is somewhat conflict between the Google Drive and Disk spindown on your NAS. I have tried to simulate the concern in our laboratory and I did not encounter the problem, I was able to enable both feature at the same time. What firmware is your NAS running at? Have you tried reflashing or upgrading the firmware?
