Hi, I got to fix a Lacie 12big Rack Storage Server at work and it's driving me crazy.
Some time ago the alarm started to bother me, it was a continuous, loud sound. The problem initially was that one of the three HDDs of the RAID wasn't being recognized by the system. After looking all over the configuration software and rebooting that was fixed for a moment. However the alarm was still sounding.
I don't remember why, but I've rebooted again and the system crashed, it wouldn't boot. So I installed Windows Server again, and after booting I had the initial problem.
The last thing I could find out was that the continuous alarm is related to HDD failure and not power or fans as the manual said, the manual has not been really helpful actually.
I want to know if there's a chance of shutting down the alarm or solve the HDD thing. The first option would be enough for me at least, but I couldn't find anything about the motherboard in the Internet (serial number didn't help) and warranty is over.
Thanks for your help, I don't know what else I can do.
