I find ?dar slow even on an internal hard disk.
I would run the backup in an internal HD, then copy it over to the
external drive; as you can limit the slice size in dar, and run a script
on completion of each slice, you can use that to move over each completed
slice to the usb drive, and thus you wouldn't need 250 GB free on your
internal drive.
