Does anyone have an easier way or any tips?
If you have the space, I'd just save --everything-- to your hard drive, regardless. Then change out your flash drive as you get books read or decide you want different ones. Or just leave them all in Calibre, and just change out your flash drive as the mood strikes.

Then you won't have to worry about copying your read books to the hard drive for save keeping if you know everything is there already.

When you plug in your flash drive, you'll see what's on it through Calibre. No need to make a column.
