I have the K-3 set for RAW+JPG with the RAWs set as DNGs and the JPGs
sized for web distribution. With two card slots, the RAWs go to card 1
and the JPGs to card 2, which is an Eye-Fi Mobi. The Mobi fairly
quickly will copy the JPGs to my iPad for quick review (or to show
interested bystanders) and the DNGs from card 1 are later transferred to
a hard drive and the JPGs on card 2 go to the bit bucket.

Saving a jpeg as a tiff won't gain you any information, all of the informatin
as already been lost in the original conversion from raw to jpeg.
You probably want to set your camera to store either raw, or raw+jpeg. I
prefer to store my raw files in dng format rather than pef on the assumption
that future processing software will support dng and may not support pef. At
one point, I was doing my initial backup in pef, and converting to dng during
my import to lightroom so that I'd have copies of both file formats, but that
was excessive, even for me.
If you are ambitious, you could set your camera to raw+jpeg and compare the
results of processing the same photo in both formats. Under ideal conditions,
where you do minimum adjustments, the differences would likely be minimal, it
tends to be in cases of poor lighting, when you need to pull details out of the
shadows or make significant changes to color balance that the information loss
is most notable. With hard drives running at less than $50/Terabyte saving
photos in poor light is far more important to me than saving hard drive space.

Thanks

DNG is RAW.

Sooner or later "different" scares people.
