Dropbox took 3 hours to upload 8GB so I have no complaints. It syncs in under a minute and it isn't a hog on my resources. Dropbox isn't expensive. I've never paid a penny. I have 19GB of space that I got mostly through their referral program.
I do it a bit differently I sync my Calibre library from it's original location to my Dropbox using a sync program. This is due to me losing two hard drives in the last year. My main library is on my external. I take no chances.

What sync program is that? Do you have a Mac? You all seem so knowledgeable, sometimes I feel like I have no clue on what you everyone is saying.
Blossom how do you get your books to your Fire, one at a time? Since Calibre developer sent me to his link that says Kindle new products are not compatible with Calibre I assumed he meant the Paperwhite too. I posted in the Calibre section about it not seeing my KFHD (On Mac).
I ordered a PW and hope it will work on my Calibre setup. I don't want to have to mess around with loading it on Dropbox unless I become more educated on the whole subject.
