The iMac G4 doesn't have USB 2, so your backup is running at USB 1 speeds: you really should get a FireWire drive.

The count of files is going to constantly vary. The figure we provide is directly from the OS. It's quite possible you have some old "failed" drive copies in the hidden /Volumes folder -- use Finder's "Go To Folder" command and look for folders (NOT links or aliases) in there.
