    Hello, I made this video when I had this problem, and I fixed it by installing 'Intel Rapid Storage Technology' driver. Did you made a reboot after you installed this driver?

    hi I've had intel driver installed from beginning and this has been happening
    so I thought that I will install version you mentioned - did not hear it since I've done this but happens only one or twice per week.

    is it hdd or montherboard?

    I assume that this 'beep' sound is making hdd. Interesting thing is, that I uninstalled "Intel Rapid Storage" driver and launched 'CPUID' but there was no beep at all like it was before. :confused:
