It's the Win7 computer that has the issue. It never sleeps. The internal

For as long as I can remember, when I moved music files around on my LMS
server, usually to rebalance the amount of used/free space across a
number of HDs, if one of my playlists referred to one of the moved
files, I would see an entry in the server/scanner log that the file
