I've had very good luck cloning scsi drives with non standard sector 
sizes using linux.  I did it all from the command line using the "sg" 
device interface.  It does the reads "by hand" so it's a little slow but 
it works fine.  I can dig up the command line I used if you need.

I would set up linux box with a good scsi card if I were you.
