If your chassis is the RM41416, or similar to it, then there'll be an 'alarm silence' button on the front. A bent paperclip will tell you if it's the chassis or PSU screaming. Is your PSU overloaded? I found that with 16x 7200RPM SAS disks and a dual socket motherboard with a "triple redundant" PSU, the total power consumption measured at the plug socket was something like 550W idle, 680W at full tilt.

Thanks for your response.

I'm hoping it's just a chassis alarm for a case fan. It looks like my chassis has that capability. I only have a single CPU 12 disk box with a 750w (I believe) PSU so I think it's not overloaded. Also the alarm came on at idle.

I'm waiting for the next occurrence to see if I can diagnose further.
