zcat ./my.img.gz | nc 192.168.10.10 9000

nc -l -p 9000 | dd of=/dev/sda


I'm using the setup above to image hard drives ...one computer at a time 
...works great, but I want to speed things up...

does this look right:

source(192.168.10.10) image command:
zcat ./my.img.gz | nc -b -p 9000


destination command:
nc -l -n 192.168.10.10 -p 9000 | dd of=/dev/sda

and another destination command:
nc -l -n 192.168.10.10 -p 9000 | dd of=/dev/sda

and another destination command:
nc -l -n 192.168.10.10 -p 9000 | dd of=/dev/sda
