I have a 60GB battery operated hard drive that sucks pics off the CF cards in the field. I have 3 2GB CF cards so I am filling one while the other is being backed up. If a card fails, I lose very few pics (I have never had a card fail). When shooting around the house, I shoot raw. In the field, especially when traveling abroad, I usually shoot .jpg in "best" mode, unless it is a subject that will benefit from "RaW". I am very reluctant to trust such a large card with so many pics. bern I do not use any CF cards larger than 2GB.
