One thing to remember to do is set the block size to a larger number if you
want it to complete in a reasonable period of time (bs=16384 was what I used
last time I did it).

No.  You would do it something like 
dd if=/dev/dsk/c0t4d0s1 of=/dev/dsk/c0t5d0s0 

At least, I'm assuming that is a valid strategy on solaris.  It is under
linux
