ACR settings stored in the .xmp files will be embedded into the .dng  
files when you convert. Is there a reason to hang onto the PEF files?  
I don't know ... I have enough spare external hard disk space that I  
haven't deleted any yet, but I doubt I actually need them.

I keep them on a separate hard drive from my archives/backups. If I  
truly find I don't need them at all, I can just reformat it and  
forget they existed.
