Maybe put some of the books back onto your computer, if they're not already there; then move them to an external hard drive, or to cloud storage. You will still have your books ready when you want them, but they won't be taking up room on your reader or your computer.

Lots of room for more books that you haven't read.
Of course, it's a first-world problem. And all my books are in Calibre on my PC. It's this entitled "I want it and I want it now" that I too have succumbed to. This feeling of missing out on this one book that I might want to read at this moment and that happens not to be on my device. The chances of that happening are infintesimal, looking at the number of books I do have on the device.
In the end I think I'll get used to it and probably won't buy a Forma or Aura One LE. It is silly to spend so much money just to have 1660 books instead of 1600. Though I very much like some of the Forma's specs!
