If you have copied from /dev/sda to /dev/sdb then `md5sum /dev/sda / 
dev/sdb` will compare both drives. You're probably safest to compare a  
partition at a time `md5sum /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1` to make sure the free  
space at the end of the drive don't throw things off. I'm pretty sure  
I've used this successfully.
