I don't want the output, I'm sending the STDERR output of 'dd' to /dev/null so that it doesn't show it to the user. I want to put the file copy into the background so that another can begin.

The functionality I'm looking for is similar to the batch mode / quiet function of scp, though for reasons that don't matter, I can't use scp.
