Smart Update vs Spotless - keeping Spotlight deactivated

I use "Spotless" to deactivate the indexing for my external's 4 partitions. Seems when I run a Smart Update, the particular partition affected may once again start indexing. Is this correct? If so, how can I make sure the indexing remains deactivated? Would I use the terminal command listed on this thread, and forget Spotless.

Thanks
