I'm certifying a 4TB hard drive (default settings.) Initial time estimate was 44 hours. Fast forward 8 hours and it's at 61 hours remaining. How much time should I really estimate?

It is a rough estimate. The number goes up and down, as the drive is certified across faster or slower portions of the disk.
A 4TB drive over thunderbolt should be in the broad range of 60 hours or so. Every manufacturer will be different, so we do not currently have a matrix of test times.
