Not long after I got my DXG, I thought I'd be clever and delete a lot of books via usb. The DXG started using a lot of power - needing a recharge every few days. I think it was "looking" for the books that the index files referred to, not finding them and looking again, looping constantly (just my impression this, I can't prove it). I "cured" it by going in via usb, deleting everything in the "Search Indexes" folder, and leaving it plugged in while it re-indexed everything.

So, in my experience, you shouldn't delete books via usb.
