Can anyone recommend a portable storage device, 40Gb+/(rechargeable) battery powered, that accepts Compact Flash and can store JPEG and RAW files? Research to date on such devices indicates no mention of the ability to accept RAW files (?).

Thanks.

Are you looking for portable storage or combined storage and image viewer?

If it is just storage it won't care about the file format, if it is a viewer you are after I think you may struggle to get one with RAW as an option due to the differences between RAW format from one camera manufacturer to another.

SmartDisk Flashtrax (http://www.smartdisk.com/Products/DigitalMultimedia/FlashTrax.asp) (made by Innoplus, it is also sold branded as the Innoplus Phototainer), EPSON P2000 (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=productlist&A=details&Q=&sku=355953&is=REG). As commented above, they only store RAW from selected cameras, do a search or take a CF card with some on it to a dealer and try it first.
