Hi !
format HDD or replace it if it doesn't fix the issue (could have damage sectors)..

That is the problem LOL - the beeping is letting you know there is an issue with the hard drive, or in your case no hard drive.

The beep is annoying so that people know their system isn't recording.

yeah that took care of it, thanks again

If yours is a dvr, not nvr and you want a backup I’ve got a ds7216 I’ll give you. Doesn’t have hdd or power supply though. I’ll eventually throw it out otherwise
