From what I read online, it is either going to be Ironwolf or exos in these systems. I m in the market for Raid hdd's tempted to get these but not sure how the warranty works if something happens after I break open the enclosure. Anyone had to do warranty claim after opening the enclosure?

I've always gone with Western Digital, but I recently picked up a new NAS and saw these Seagate drives on sale a few weeks ago for the same price—figured, why not? So far, no issues, though they do run a bit hotter than my other drives.According to Reddit, the Seagate ST22000DM000 is a 7200 RPM, SATA 6Gb/s, 256MB cache, 3.5-inch hard drive. The important bit for NAS users is that it uses CMR (Conventional Magnetic Recording) and is helium-filled, which suggests it's likely a rebranded or "white label" version of Seagate's higher-end Exos or IronWolf series—despite the "Barracuda" model number, which usually implies a consumer-grade drive.The main caveat? These OEM-labeled drives often have ambiguous warranty status and limited official support, so it's worth keeping that in mind if you're relying on them for mission-critical storage.
