I have done several FULL SYSTEM RESTORES from internal HDDs mounted in external enclosure kits -
via USB 1.1, USB 2.0, FireWire 400, FireWire 800, SATA-to-SATA, and IDE HDD/SATA bridge-to-SATA port. USB 2.0 has worked flawlessly for me whenever NEC-compliance for USB both host controllers
and USB device controllers has been assured, but spottily when not.

via USB 2.0.

and external device controllers of all sorts.
Are you considering an external HDD, or do you already have one?
