Don't worry about it, I don't get triggered about that.

I don't think there's a user friendly way to do it yet in 4.0. See

It seems I missunderstood the comment from marmarek. I just now updated the
Fedora 26 template as suggested and I can attach and mount external
USB3 storage device.

seems marmarek posted an update,  he suggest to update the fedora.

But it seems passthrough for usb3 is still not supported yet,  only block 
device.

I'm glad for these posts before I attempted to try 4.0 and restore my old 
backups.  I think I might wait a while.

Does this mean USB3 based storage devices started working in 4.0?

No update in the following bug on the same.

Attach external drive to sys-usb
"qvm-block" to list partitions
"qvm-block a backup-vm sys-usb:sda1" (whichever is your LUKS partition)
mount and unlock inside backup-vm
"qvm-backup-restore -d backup-vm /path/to/backupfileinbackupvm oldvm1
oldvm2 oldvm3" to selectively restore certain vms
unmount inside backup-vm
"qvm-block d backup-vm sys-usb:sda1"
Detach drive
