Hello, 
I build up my own pc recently but after a month the HDD is not detected during startup ,i hear a beep like sound from harddisk too after which the bios says no bootable media found.But after few restarts it detects the hdd and there is no beep sound.
My config is
i7 4790k on gigabyte H97M , seagate 1TB ,4GB ram and +450watt PSU.


Configuration: iPhone / Chrome 35.0.1916.141

is this new hard disk?
Try to back up the data in the hard disk as soon as possible.
there may be possible of hard disk failure in which sounds from hard disk is not a good sign and hard disk is not detecting sometimes is not fine...
If it is new try to RMA it

Hi Hash,

Are you sure the beeping sound comes from the hard drive? If it really is, your drive may be facing a mechanical issue. Since it is a new build, I presume your drive is still under warranty? Do you have valuable data on it. If you do, try connecting it in another PC as a secondary drive. Try changing the SATA ports and cables too. If your drive is working fine on another PC, the problem may be coming from your motherboard or PSU. If the drive is still not working, contact the reseller and get a drive replacement.

Hope this helps
