USB. It is a RPi4 with a Dock Station Ewent EW7012 and a Seagate IronWolf 4TB 5900RPM 64MB SATA III.

Than it might be that the USB enclosure is managing the spin down.

Is it supposed that the usb dock put it on spin down by it self?
At least some do. Maybe check the datasheet or contact the support of that enclosure.

I just notice that I set a spindown time but didn't enable Advanced Power Management.
When Reading form the disk its power consumption is 6W, when stop using the disk is 5W.
What are the difference between the different Advanced Power Management options?
What would you suggest me to use?
EDIT: right now the power consumption is 1W. Since Advanced Power Management is disabled, is it the usb dock that's spinning down the disk?

is it the usb dock that's spinning down the disk?
Probably yes.
