I accept that some people do this, but the idea of loading massive numbers of books onto a device baffles me. Even if I were going to be away for an extended period of time, I can't see having more than couple dozen books on my e-reader. Moreover, I keep a backup copy of my Calibre library on the storage card on my phone, so I could always just upload a title from that folder to my e-reader while away if necessary.
When I go on vacation, I usually bring my Surface Pro 2 with me so I have a full Windows 10 computer in tablet form. I do put on some books I've recently gotten in case I decide I want ot read any of those. I'll also have Calibre with me.
