Dear David
Last but not least...
Now it happened...
Device is the Clara HD, Version of calibre is 3.32 (64bits), FW is 4.10.11655 patched version.
So... what I did:
Batch 1 : 9000 books, took 4h48min., Reconnection time (for synch) 1m44s
Batch 2 : 1000 books, took 37min, Reconnection time (for synch) 1m35s
Batch 3 : 5000 books, took 2h58min, Reconnection time (for synch) 2m26s
Batch 4: 6000 books, took 3h24min, Reconnection time (for synch) 3m37s
Batch 5: 6000 books – error after 1h59min, not same error code
This time I have following:
Code:
calibre, version 3.32.0
ERREUR : Erreur: Erreur pendant la communication avec le périphérique

Big temp file created in the AppData/Local/temp folder => calibre_ta0k3r with 39.1 GB
Kobo did not start the import of the books => I tried to switch off, switch on again without result. I tried to repair the account without result, I tried to import just “one book” (sometimes it’s enough to relaunch the import process), but did not work. I tried to force a start up of the device, but this did not work. It's writen in the user manual that it should happen when you switch off your reader and release the power button and press it again for about 30 seconds, but nothing happened. The reader just restarted "normally" withtout starting the import of anything. At the end, I tried to re-import the same 6000 books. Import again stucked with the error code.

The reader is now on the home page, fully charged and shows 20999 imported items (which makes me think that I hit a limit at 21000). I think I'm able to reconnect it (I did not try, but the last time it worked).
I have the debug log file done, and will send it to you per PM. I did not empty the temp folder - which I will definitely have to do, but not yet.
So... that's it from my side. I can restart a trial with the Glo HD for which I have a 4.8.11073 patched version, but I'm quite sure we'll end up with the same result (at least the last 2-3 times I tried, it behaved the same).
Have a very nice day
