If I disconnect the device and reconnect it, it still takes 3 minutes to get the library on the device ready. With the other Aura I have, it took a whole afternoon to just finish the first scan. I guess, for the purpose of adding or deleting books, it would be easier to use copy and drop in Windows than Calibre as before the rescanning job is done no other task can be executed in Calibre.
I have to ask, how many books do you have on he device? It might help to turn off the "Read metadata from file on device" option. That is what is slowing it down on the first pass, but it needs the file names to contain the author and title. But, after the first read, it should be matching using the metadata.calibre file for any books that calibre has already matched to the books in the library.

An alternative to using a driver of some sort, you could use "Save to disk" to put the files on the device. That allows you to skip a step. But means you don't see what is on the device when in calibre.
