@Kirstendomenech -

Does it show up in ThisPC as a disc drive with a letter, or as a Device (e.g. 'Fire')?

When I connect my Paperwhite, it shows as a mounted drive with a drive letter, but connecting my grandson's Kindle Fire, it shows as a device (named Fire)

Double clicking opens the internal memory and/or the SD card and I can drag files to it, but can't use my 2-window file manger to copy since the FM requires a drive letter

I use Windoze to copy books to my Paperwhite not Calibre, so I don't know if this makes any difference to Calibre

Just an observation
