I copy my .pef files onto my hard drive. When I work with an image I will save as a PSD. When I am finished, I will resave as either as a tif or jpeg, depending on how it will be used.
The only confusing thing to me is that the raw tool in pse3 saves the changes although as far as I can tell, I can get back to original. It is not clear to me whether the tool settings are saved or the changed image, but I think the first. For archive purposes, I write the pef files onto cd's.
