I have a home-built Supermicro file server in my office with a very beepy RAID controller. It's about 4 years old, and for the first 2 years everything was fine. Around then a drive failed, which I replaced, nothing unusual. However since then, every time the machine is rebooted, the RAID alarm goes off, and the only way to silence it is to click 'silence alarm' within MegaRAID Storage Manager. Since it's a Windows Server, this happens quite a lot. I have updated all firmware/software to the latest I can find, that's MRSM 17.05.00.02, Avago 3108 card firmware 4.650.00-6223. The status of the controller is 'Optimal' in both MRSM and the Supermicro IPMI, and there are no visible warning in any of the logs. I even tried disabling the alarm in the RAID BIOS when booting, but it still beeps.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
