I personally use 2 SD card slots and save RAW to both, so the same photo on two cards.
Reason for this is mainly theft related. If I'm travelling I want to have the ability to take out one card and leave the camera in the hotel/car if I have to and carry one card on me.
With the price of SD cards I really don't see a reason not to use the second one as a backup, even if failure is a minor risk, why risk it?
Now what I'm wondering about is if the camera actually writes slower when writing to two cards, instead of just one?
