A simple question how long take create and restore a backup?

Thread needs solution

Hello

I have a simple question, how long take to backup an image of the drive? 

In mi case I used a kingston KC2500 512GB SSD with 74GB in use, and when backup the unit to a external ssd (via USB 3.1) it takes 30 minutes and create a file aprox 12GB of size and when restore (using the 2020 version, because the 2021 has issues) it takes the same 30 minutes, its normal? I can remenber that using 2019 versions take me a lot less time, maybe 10 minutes backup and restore.

Actually yes, this is normal.  You will find that even though you are using USB 3.0 or 3.1 your speeds may not be what you expect.  In order to achieve fast transfer speeds your connected device and the port on your PC that you are connecting to must be SuperSpeed 3.0 or 3.1.  If not than performance will suffer accordingly.
