Great, now I feel doubly foolish ... I read your response originally, but 
didn't catch the another source :(  Turns out it is a beep code telling 
me that hte RAID controller is okay *roll eyes*

 Subject: POST Beep Codes on Intel motherboard ...
 
 
 
 I'm trying to narrow a problem down with my new server, and want to 
 confirm that this makes sense ...
 
 I have a new Intel SE7520JR2 DDR2 motherboard ... when I power up the 
 server, I get a 'BIOS Lan Console' message, then it pauses, I get 
 'beep-pause-beepbeepbeep' and then it continues booting ...
 
 I can get FreeBSD installed, and it boots fine ... but after 
 60 minutes, 
 the machine hangs ...
 
 From searching the web, it looks like the Beep Codes 
 indicate a memory 
 issue, but I just want to double check that I'm not 
 mis-diagnosing the 
 problem :(
 
 Thanks ...
