Internal HDD seems quickest followed by USB3.0 Ext HDD.

I've always done my backups to an external drive, although in the past it was a drive directly connected via USB2.0 to my computer, whereas this time I'm making a redundant copy to my Raid1 NAS. You're likely right that it is the destination device (didn't occur to me until you pointed it out).
