I shoot PEF, and convert to DNG on import with Lightroom ("Copy as DNG").

The reason I do this is that when Lightroom does the conversion, it embeds
a checksum that can later be used with "Library > Validate DNG Files" to
verify that no disk corruption has occurred. At least at the time I decided
to do things this way, DNG as shot by my cameras did not embed this
checksum.

Once a month, I select all the photos in my catalog and run the Validate
task. (Knock on wood, it has never found an error so far.)
