It's getting on and I'm getting a periodic loud beeping from it. When it starts it beeps for about half a second and repeats every 15 seconds or so. If I shut the system down totally for a few hours the problem goes away only to reappear days, weeks or months later. Nothing in the freebsd logs and saw nothing in the bios. Nothing in the Supermicro manual either. The system appears fine otherwise. Anyone have this gear and seen this problem? -D
