Ok to replace iron wolf with exos of the same capacity in raidz?

Go to solution Solved by Kilrah,

Should be fine, I've got both of them mixed, essentially the same drives.

Have a raidz array and one of my drives is throwing errors. I am going to send to seagate for a replacement but is it ok to replace with an exos drive of the same capacity in the meantime? I assume exos and iron wolf are the same drives with different binning but may be wrong.
