Yup I am a proud hoarder/backup copier to my PC, Samsung Note 2, Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime, Samsung S5, Samsung Tablet of all of my 1803 books. The only one that doesn't get new books put on it regularly is my Sony T1. (I've got it recharging right now, and I've got over 200 books to add to it.)

Any of the few rare books that I get that have drm on them get stripped, renamed if in a series, so that they can go on all my devices.

My main reader is my Note 2, (due to commute to & from work) followed by my PC.

The Grand Prime is mainly utilized as a MP3 player connected to my sound system. The S5 is a back up for in case my ancient Note 2 decides to kick the bucket but I will have a phone waiting in the wings! But I take it and my tablet with me when I travel so that I can switch to let the other recharge.

I don't utilize Calibre to do my syncing, I do it the old fashioned way by hooking them up to my and transferring from my PC to device.

I even have all of my books in Mobi format on my PC in case for some unknown reason I decide to get a Kindle tablet. It's highly unlikely but you never know.

So if there is room on the device, I want all of my books on them so that I will always have my entire library at my disposal!
