Internal storage is absolutely the best place to store your books, if they'll fit. Unfortunately, B&N reserves most of the internal memory for Nook Store purchases, leaving only 240 mb for side-loaded content. That's just not enough space for people who like to carry around a virtual library.

It's difficult to accurately calculate how many books 240 mb holds. The largest graphic novel I've ever borrowed from the library was 198 mb (Fantastic Four #1). A quick glance shows that my ePub paperback length books range in size from 200 kb - 2 mb. Longer books, books with graphics (even chapter art) or embedded fonts and PDFs have quite large file sizes. I have 80 side-loaded items on my nook, and it's full.
