David:
Unless the camera's RAW format includes a JPEG thumbnail, you won't be able to preview RAW images on any backup storage unit with a display. Flashtrax and Epson's new P-4000 both work like this, and so do iPods.

When your R9 stores RAW DNG images to the DMR, it probably doesn't make the JPEG thumbnail. So that may be why you can't see anything on your P-2000.

Epson P-2000 "Photo-Bank". 40GB Hard drive, with the best screen (3.8") in the business. Built in card reader for CF and SD cards. USB2 for downloads (your computer - PC or Mac - sees it as an external hard drive). Silver finish. Excellent condition. No scratches on screen, or unit.

This item was used, very successfully, for a trip, 11 months ago, to Costa Rica. I downloaded the cards from my Canon 20D, reviewed the photos, and brought 'em home! Shortly afterwards, I bought a Leica DMR, sold the Canon, and then discovered that while it supports Epson (RD-1), Nikon (NEF) and Canon (CRW & CR2) raw files, the P-2000 does not support. DNG files. You can store them and retrieve them, just fine, but you cannot view them. (Oh...it also supports Tif and Jpg files, for those of us who do not shoot RAW.)

So... Currently selling at B&H and others (including Epson, direct) for US$399.

With original box, padded case, instructions, charger, all cords and cables. $289 + shipping.
