Awesome, thank you for updating! Were you able to determine drive model through crystal disk or similar without opening it, or did you just get to shucking?

If I'm in the market for a 10TB drive, why would I ever consider a 5TB?
And the 5TB is gonna cost less, not more.

I really don't think there's much difference between Baracuda Pro and Iron Wolf. I guess the Iron Wolf might be rated slightly higher for MTBF. Both cost almost the same.
