that dd command so it might work - i just found dd to be really slow for even an 8GB drive.
Usually caused by a lack of the option 'bs=8192k' (or similar)
Make sure you have dma etc enabled on the drives too
Could you expand on that please?

okay bs=x means read/write at that speed. I guess its dependent on the buffer of the harddrive your reading from and writing to. I think my case they will differ so i will have to specify the ibs/obs tags.
Whats dma ?
