How do I have to jumper 3,5 hard discs inside external USB boxes?

Master or Slave?

What, if there are more than 1 external USB hard disc. Should they be different in jumpering?

A.

No, jumper them all as master.
Just don't forget to re-jumper properly when you ever connect these disks to internal IDE.
