Dell PowerEdge 2300 working fine but beeping every 3 seconds?

Hi, I have a Dell PowerEdge 2300 which is working fine but it is emitting a high pitched beeping sound every 3 seconds. As i say, the server is running - no event errors etc. It has 3 drives Raid 5 and all are OK. Any ideas?
Thank you

I'd check with Dell for the cause of the beep. It could be caused by a RAID controller battery going bad, a fan not running as it should, a disk in the array not working etc. If you install the Dell "HIP Application" software you should probably get more info too.
