* 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
Thank you very much for your suggestion, we will implement the feature of limiting write speed in a future release.
