SSD vs. 7200RPM Drive Tests

So I was curious... what would the BlackMagic Disk Speed Test show if I ran it on a 7200RPM Lacie D2 Thunderbolt 2 external (4TB) vs. a Samsung EVO 860 (2TB) SSD with USB 3.0 external dock vs. a Samsung EVO 860 (2TB) SSD with a Thunderbolt 2 external dock?

Mac Pro 2013 3.5GHz 6-core Intel Xeon E5 / 32GB RAM / High Sierra

Results below

Lacie 7200RPM D2 TB 2 external: Write: 192 MB/s -- Read: 196 MB/s
Samsung EVO 860 SSD USB 3.0 external: Write: 252 MB/s -- Read: 266 MB/s
Samsung EVO 860 SSD TB 2 external: Write: 336 MB/s -- Read: 383 MB/s

Thought others might find this interesting...
