Sure, you do that. Then look very, very carefully at benchmarks (and be honest with yourself when you see the results).
That said, it's really stupid of them (or evasive) to be silent on whether...

I've always heard that inside that the interiors of these external hard drives are SSD's. Does that mean this is substantially different/faster?

I like the newer model better, this model here in the post is the older one and uses a proprietary cable, whereas the new ones have USB-C as does the Samsung T5. That makes a huge difference to me.
