ATI 2021 backup extremely slow.
I have had True Image for many years but the 2021 version is the first that I have had SERIOUS problems with.
Prior to 2021 I had a backup where the full backup took 11 hours to run.
The last full backup under 2021 took 4 DAYS and 22 HOURS to run.
System setup the same, backup to an external USB drive (this is plugged in all the time to the USB port and only powered up when I do a backup.
What has changed to make 2021 so slow? Individual disk partition backups on a separate disk are each taking days to complete. this level of performance I can not tolerate. I want to stay with True Image, but not if it takes all week to do a backup that used to take less than half a day.
OS is Windows 10.

Recently I have seen a number of reports of slow performance of backup to external USB disks. In most cases this proves to be either an old outdated or sometime corrupt USB driver, or a bad cable of connection to the device.
You might try disconnecting the USB cable to the drive with the PC shutdown then, startup the PC and after Windows loads plug in the USB cable. This should reinitialize the disk which will reload the driver and may bring back your performance.
