I don't have much of a grasp of the technicalities here but this is what I have been doing:
1. Shoot in HDR Auto in jpeg and RAW.
2. Have both cards mounted on my Mac but only read the jpeg files, and from that select those I want for RAW processing.
3. Download those equivalent RAW files from the camera to the computer as Work files .
4. Open in Camera Raw and hit auto. Then process as I want it for cropping, saturation, etc., and then go to Color Efex Pro 2. I find the detail extraction works really well.
Then I go to Silver Efex and create a black and white.
I'm really happy with the results and I think this is a good way of minimising disc usage.
