My question deals with how to save the books onto the sd card using calibre. Should I do so with the sd card in the Kobo? Or should I save books to the sd card via my card reader and then place the sd card into the Kobo? Or does it really make a difference?
Strictly, it doesn't matter. If you add them to the card via a card reader, the device will process the books when you put it into the device. If the card in the device when connected, calibre will show all books on both the main memory and the card. The main library will show which storage the book is in. There are also separate lists for the main memory and the card. Personally, I find this very convenient for maintaining the books on the device.
