We decode only what the manufacturer documents. There is a large body of community knowledge about the undocumented segments above, much of it probably right, and none of it published by Seagate - so it does not appear in this table. A reading nobody can check does not belong in a column headed “what it means”. Grammar reference: Seagate - product part-number and model-number decoding.

No live listings for ST4000NM0033 right now. We are not going to fill this space with something else and call it a match. The decode, specifications and sibling table above are the reference answer for this part number and remain accurate whether or not anyone is selling one today. If you need the capacity rather than this specific part, the alternatives below are what is actually buyable.
A manufacturer part number does not imply a manufacturer warranty, and this is where part-number buyers lose the most money. OEM stock, integrator pulls and gray-market units all reach the market under the maker's own numbering. Retailers selling them sometimes state plainly that the manufacturer warranty is none; others simply do not mention it, which is not the same as it being covered.
Coverage attaches to the individual unit and its serial number, not to the part number. That means the only reliable answer comes from the manufacturer, about the specific drive you are being sold.
Ask the seller for the serial number before purchase, then enter it in Seagate warranty checker. We link the tool rather than showing a result here, because the answer depends on the individual drive and only Seagate can give it.

ST4000NM0033 is Seagate Constellation 4TB SATA-6G. 3 of its 5 segments are defined in Seagate's own published documentation - the decode table on this page shows each one with the document that defines it. The remaining segments are not publicly documented, and we say so rather than repeating a community guess as fact.
Not necessarily, and the part number cannot tell you. Coverage depends on how the individual unit entered the market and whether it was registered, not on its model designation. OEM and gray-market stock reaches the market under manufacturer part numbers regularly and frequently carries no manufacturer warranty at all - some retailers print exactly that on the listing. Check the specific serial with Seagate's own tool, linked in the warranty section on this page.
Both are in the Constellation range. They differ in interface: SATA-6G against SAS-6G, which decides whether the drive fits your controller. The variant table on this page lists every sibling we document with what differs.
We hold no live listing for this part number right now. That is the honest state rather than a broken page - this remains the reference answer for what ST4000NM0033 is, how it decodes and which siblings it is confused with. The alternatives section below shows what is currently buyable at the same capacity.
Because more than one organisation names it. The manufacturer assigns a model number describing the product; a server vendor buying it in volume assigns its own spare-part number for its service catalogue; distributors sometimes add another. All identify the same physical drive, which is why one number returns listings that look like a different product. Our part number index explains the pattern per vendor.
