This is true in NetBSD. In /dev on the FreeBSD system there is no
ada1d, or
rwd1d. In the dmesg it looks like it call the first drive ada0 and
says it was
formerly ad4, and the second drive it calls ada1 formerly ad6. I
have tried
both and it doesn't work. Maybe rad6 would represent the whole
disk. You may
have just put me on the right track. Thanks!

FreeBSD does not use r prefix in device names in /dev, in contrast
to NetBSD.
I found that out.
ad6 is the old name for what is now ada1, so it seems from what you
have typed; this depends on hardware setup. I believe this change
came in FreeBSD 9.0.
I am trying it with a bs of 64k. I will see what happens.
Still, I was able to convert a few more servers to NetBSD remotely,
just not the ones running FreeBSD.
Kind Regards,
Al
