[Coco] Backup of HDB-DOS drives

I'd like to backup HDB-DOS drives from one device to another. I have SCSI drives.  Perhaps I could use BACKUP in a loop but don't know if it's possible for HDB-DOS to address two different devices.

I'm thinking of using NITROS9 with a device descriptor set up for source and destination HDB-DOS, open each as a raw device, and copying 256 * 35 * 18 bytes.  Do we have a program like Linux's 'dd' ?
