I managed to find a ST2000DM001 so I've ordered one.

 

I'll be mixing it with 3 other ST32000542AS but I don't have any other choice. I'm guessing it'll be OK even though the new drive will have a larger cache and faster r/w speeds.

I would not have done that.  There are a lot of issues posted here (and elsewhere) on DM drives in RAID.
