MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - problem loading books to Forma via Calibre

I do not know whether it is a problem with the device or with Calibre, but I have been painfully loading some 4000 books to my 2 days old Forma - mostly kepubs converted from epub on the way, the rest PDFs.
I've been sending them in small batches, but calibre still closes down half-way through. And sometimes it disconnects from the device. In both cases the device remains connected to my PC. I tried Microsoft analysis which detected no error, then I disconnected my Kobo account and then reconnected to refresh the data base without having to spend two more days' loading, but the problem subsists.

Here is the latest error message:

Spoiler:

I've had this type of problem everytime I've loaded my books on a new reader, but it seems worse. I don't know whether I should post this here or in the Kobo forum. Can someone tell from the log?

Thanks.
