I have used WinToUSB to clone Windows 10 home to an external SSD with USB 3.0. I find overall performance to be superior to that of the computer from which it was cloned Initial bootup is much quicker, as is waking from “sleep.” Also, it feels like there does not seem to be as much background junk going on. The clone USB seems equally as speedy on a different computer from which it was cloned. I would like to understand why this is happening. My imagination? Any thoughts?

Don't understand why. In theory, the transfer speed of USB 3.0 is slightly lower than that of SATA. Is your internal disk an SSD?

Both computers on which I have tried the clone have SATA hard drives. This really feels like more than explained by SSD vs SATA. Please understand that I am not complaining.
