More tips (untested), found via some random reddit thread:

FreeBSD only:  Ctrl-T when any base util running (SIGINFO)
pkill -USR1 -x dd
ddrescue
watch -n 30 'pkill -USR1 -n -x dd'

Even more tips found at TestDisk site:

http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/Damaged_Hard_Disk

And (for non-*nix) I also found a tool called "Win32 Disk Imager" ("A
Windows tool for writing images to USB sticks or SD/CF cards"):

https://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/

"... is designed to write a raw disk image to a removable device or
backup a removable device to a raw image file." (So it can read
[backup] or write or verify image.)
