Long-term effects of continued usb hard drive use

I don't think it would be any different for a hard disk on a USB link compared to one connected up inside the computer.

There may be heat issues if the enclosure is small and unventilated.

Nope, shouldn't be any issues.

If the USB drive is properly designed, heat shouldn't be an issue. But that doesn't necessarily mean that they're all properly designed...
