[Dr. Drib]

You'll only need that kind of space if you like to put thousands upon thousands of books on your Reader.

Many people laugh uproariously (in private!) when a member goes down this dark, obsessive road.

Some members disagree - like a hermit crab carrying around his house on his back - they like to have their entire library with them. This strange breed of creature enjoys having thousands upon thousands of choices to choose from when it comes to reading. In my studies of this strange behavior, I've found that they like to live in dark alleys with poor lighting, and usually live in efficiency apartments, which may have a psychological bearing upon their desire to have as much storage space as possible. In the meantime, my research continues....

Be aware, however, that if you choose the first option, that no one will laugh or make fun of you (in public) - we don't allow that on MobileRead. We are a tolerant group of individuals, and we respect the strange differing behavior of our many members.

But seriously: If you feel a need to put your entire library on that amount of space, you should do so, but indexing can take a very long time. Also, it's sometimes comforting (from one's personal point-of-view), to include your entire library on a single device. I don't do it, but there are members here who like having that option. Too, some members like to keep their purchased ebooks on the device, and sideloaded ebooks on the card, an option which addresses management choices.
