Er, the time estimate was a bit off. I forgot that the system I was quoting
uses multiple partitions and the "--exclude-other-filesystems" switch skips
those. Still, it doesn't take hours to run.

I think your issue is down to the USB stack. Check the following:

1) You are really plugged into a USB 3 port
2) You are using a USB 3 cable
3) Your caddy really supports USB 3 speeds[1]
4) Your kernel supports USB 3
5) Your kernel's USB 3 support is enabled
6) Ditto for the BIOS
