Hello, and thank you very much.
* Yes, you are right that it's the USB device's task to take care it won't overheat.
* I have not yet performed a full backup with many dozens GB but will do so this week and I will report here about the result. (But it could be that high temperatures (it is winter at the moment) might have different results in the future.)
* I will also try limiting the cores if I run into problems. Thanks for the idea.
* I could not find a feature to limit USB to USB2. (I think that could also be *too* slow then?). I could still switch back to USB3 after a large Full image has been made, by the way. But like I said I cannot choose USB in Paralllels, it seems.
Finally, I still think limiting transfer read and write speeds (like in R-Drive) can be a practical option - but let's wait until I report about how my huge full backup will perform.
I remember with Macrium, I tried several times, and it always overheated after like 30 GB or so.
Till later
