Currently I have my CF slot set to record RAW and the SD slot to record large JPEG. My question is what happens when one of these cards fills up? For example, let's say I have a 8GB CF card and a 256GB SD card. Obviously the CF card will fill with RAW files before the SD card fills with JPEGS. So what happens at that point? Does the camera tell you that you are maxed out or will it automatically kick over to the SD card and continue recording RAW?
Thanks for any info/experience anyone can offer.

A little more digging and I was able to answer my own question. But for those who are curious, I've attached the segment from the manual.
