August 7, 200916 yr Well, its been a couple of years since I have been on the boards, probably a good thing. that means everything is working right. Well I recently upgraded my tower (two new 1TB hard drives and finally upgraded unraid from version 3 to the latest 4.4.2. Everything about the upgrade went fine until I started to use my tower again. Now it seems that when every I access a drive in the tower the speaker will buzz at me. Its doing it rignt now as I copy a file up to the tower. It will also do it when watching a movie. The problem is it is not consistant, its not a constant alarm buzzing its intermediate. and its annoying as hell. Does anyone have any idea why its doing this now, and never before. It still seems to be working I can copy files up and access them when every I want, it just bitches about it everytime I use it.

How many disk drives are now in the server? What size power supply? Post a syslog. It might contain clues. Joe L.
August 7, 200916 yr Might the "buzz" you hear be a wire brushing against a fan blade? You might have moved them to where they are touching when you installed the new drives?
August 8, 200916 yr Author Definitily not a wire, its the speaker on the motherboard. I will post a sys log tomorrow, we are packing the house we have to move in one week.
August 8, 200916 yr Author I can answer a couple of question now, 4 drives (2) 500 (2) 1TB Power supply is a 750
