Manufacturer recertified & seller recertified both? If yes then will they be priced same or different. Also, any option for 1-2 years warranty for extra 1-2k like with earlier 10TB drivves?

Yes both, both are priced fairly similarly. But on key difference is that a manufacturer recertified would be replaced with the same hdd whereas the seller recertified would be replaced with either same hdd or a similar hdd of same capacity.
Yes additional warranty can be purchased. Both for 1 year and 2 years price varies from 2k - 4k extra depending on capacity of the drive.

1 drive for me.
There are currently only 3 hdd manufacturers in the world, seaget, WD & Toshiba & as far as I know Hitachi was acquired by WD in 2012 & ceased to exist as an independent hdd brand since 2018.

I couldn't also find a datasheet for the drive. However there is one hit for this model on a Thai website.

QR scan does show it to be 1Tb drive.
it says 1,000GB i.e. 1TB it should be 10,000GB for 10TB
lol, guys wait till Monday late evening, I will clear your doubts. I currently don't have time as I have a couple of systems to get ready and dispatch them for tomorrow. Once I am free I will check the drive out and updated.
I took it out from the sealed package and saw that it was a rebranded/vendor-rectified drive, I think they do this for the following reasons
1.) Hitachi as a brand is no longer sold, so they possibly reprint labels to a different brand, obviously not done by my vendors, but by someone else they buy from, they therefore give warranty on these up to 2 years.
2.) Hard drives whose labels get damaged or torn out for whatever reasons, may also be rebranded.
After @gREen pointed it out, I asked my vendor, and he said it's not Seagate but a Hitachi drive, So I only took 1 for testing. I connected to a PC it shows up as an HGST HMH7210A0ALE600 which while searching online looks to be Hitachi UltraStar "Archive" Enterprise Drive, so don't go by the label I guess, I will share health and smart information by Monday evening/Tuesday early morning.
It is a drive using Host-Managed SMR technology & is not supported by windows & poor linux support too as per below link.

that might have been true in 2019. Its different now. See this reddit post where people are using 10+ TB drives in linux with btrfs.
Still seem a lot of hassle to make it work considering even basic linux skills already are considered a hassle by majority. There are 10TB non-HASMR drives & their availability is also quite good in general so in my honest opinion, compared to the 10TB seagate barracuda pro sold earlier here this HASMR drive deserves 10-20% discount as majority won't be able to use it here or elsewhere. I personally wouldn't buy such drive no matter the discount because I am not confident enough to make it work despite having some basic experience of running & installing linux but for those who do they can go ahead.
