Both save to disk and send to device will update the book to the latest metadata and copy it somewhere. Save to disk will prompt you were to copy the book. But, send to device does device specific things. The driver for the connected device will do things like put the file in the place the device will read it from, make sure the file name is valid on the device, upload covers in the appropriate size and place. And different drivers will do more. The KoboTouch driver can manage collections, series info and add some standard CSS to an epub. The KoboTouchExtended driver can modify an epub to be a kepub.
