Default DD command on OpenBsd

I have used the dd command in the past, but it was on linux system, and am having trouble using it on OpenBsd.
Code:
# dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdc bs=8M; sync
the sda is the HD and sdc is a portable USB drive, the problem, if I do not mount them , it says it does not see them.
I am using another USB drive, with OpenBsd on it, it is bootable and works fine, Actually I made it some time ago, but using a portable usb drive, with Linux on it, and I copied my OpenBsd HD, to the device, using the above command with no problem.
The devices all show ok when I use:
Code:
sysctl hw.disknames
, so it seemed like it should work. Any ideas ?
Thanks
