Mix WD WD101EDBZ (Elements White) with WD101EFBX (Red Plus) in NAS or try to get more Whites from shucking? (zerobytes.monster)

I have 2x WD101EDBZ right now, and I am thinking about either getting two more of the 10GB Elements drives and shucking, or just getting two WD101EFBX which seem to be pretty similar, and using them all for the same volume.

What's my best option? Will the Elements drive likely have changed in the couple years since I first got them? I'd rather have 4 absolutely identical drives but if close enough is good enough I might rather go for the sure thing of the Red Plus rather than chances on what is in a shucked drive.
