Personally with it in their posession already I would not think that the warrent was necessary - sort of like the feds busting in your front door with a warrent for drugs but finding you in posession of illegal firearms / explosives.  

Think it was more of a CYA move by Comey to make sure that it was not a loophole to be used before a grand jury if it comes to that.
