Honestly, if CM7 is your daily driver, I would consider moving it to eMMC (which frees you to get a higher class 32GB card for faster data transfers) and setting up an 8GB SD of the stock OS if you still have use for it. Turn your current 4GB card into a bootable ClockworkMod Recovery disk.

Actually, the reason I was planning on getting 2x16GB was so I could continue using Nook CM7 while I'm loading up additional data on the other microSD card via card reader. Caveat, that means needing to reboot when I switch cards/content. It completely escaped my mind that I could just connect the Nook to the computer via cable to copy files. I don't plan on installing CM7 to internal memory until the warranty period ends.
That said, I only have a $25 gift card from Amazon so I just bought a 16GB card for now. I'll see if I can make do with a smaller card. Even with only 14GiB usable space, that's still over 150 volumes worth.
