Does the D2X get banding from long exposures?

I've noticed this on my d70 as well as others, that there is banding in the dark areas when shooting long exposures, just wondering if the D2x is immune to this.

Thanks,
Owen.

I did some 3 minute exposures on Friday night of the thunderstorm and had no banding issues - even when major 's' curving. RAW helps stop banding in my experience, but even the JPEGs looked fine (RAW+MEDIUM JPG)
