I have recently built a 1.7TB file storage server for our digital lab
and I was wondering what the easiest way to backup the SCSI boot disk
to the RAID5 array would be?  I was thinking something along the lines
of dd if=/dev/XXXXX of=/array/fbsd5disk or similar... if anyone can
give me correct syntax and or options or a better options please let
me know, thanks.
