Hello
My wife's Dell laptop is emitting a noise intermittently. I finally pulled up what it sounds like = quite like the buzz when the TV screen crawls with a test of the public warning system — only steady, not Bzz - Bzzz – Bzz. And not so harsh.
It comes and goes.
I'll sneak in and find out what model the computer is when she's not looking Win 10.
Anything simple offa the top o' yer heads?

My first thought for a buzz would be a fan. However, your description of the sound, and it's intermittent manifestation, would make me be concerned about the hard drive.
It does not seem to be a mechanical noise; and comes from the speakers.
