That's why you want to watch a few videos on how to shuck without damaging the shell and keep careful track of it and any internals (mainly the SATA/power adapters).
The videos will help you figure out where all the clips are and hopefully give you some tips on how to pry the shell off without damaging the clips.
5-8 years ago, I didn't bother with the careful part and just levered the shell apart with a screwdriver. Now that hard drives are out of this world expensive (I bought 2 x 20TB Western Digital Reds retail last year for $500), I'd probably go slow with some plastic spudgers (think guitar picks).
Current hard drive prices are making me sort of depressed.

Edit: just saw the other posts.
These are super easy to shuck. Solid deal, 14tb is a slightly better deal per TB

Whether they are rebadged Exos or Barracuda, there's not a ton of online information for those drives so there's a little bit of faith involved in going with those shucked Seagates.
Typically the WD externals are using a relabeled Red Pro, but as with all of the externals, there's always a first time that a drive inside changes.
Warranty is moot if you want to try and return the bare drive, AFAIK that's always the case.

I usually buy at least 1 extra drive, so that if one fails in my RAID array, I can just replace it and have the array rebuild while I deal with warranty/whatever for the failed drive. That also means I have a new case available for popping a failed drive into, but check that there is no serial # on the frame — if there is, you can just keep the frames from the shucked in-use drives and throw all the other crap out if space is at a premium as it is for me.
