Q: Weird noise coming from a Brand-new Macbook pro, randomly. (Includes a recording).
Hello,
I bought a brand new Macbook Pro Retina 15' about a month ago, and this morning it started to make some weird noises.
I first heard the noise while the Macbook's lid was shut, and it was in sleeping mode. (kinda strange.)
After I opened it and started working I found out that the same noise is returning Randomly, every about 5-10 Minutes, sometimes even 15.
I have made a recording of the sound, you can find it around the 3rd second, its' volume is a bit boosted: (some kind of 3 fast beeps)

it is not very loud, but it seems like it should be noticed.
I am a bit stressed about it, being a brand new machine. has anyone heard this kind of sound before ? knows what it could mean ?
Any answer would be helpful.
Thanks a lot,
Tal
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X El Capitan (10.11.5), null
