let's say I copy the .XML file to my hard drive, then I erase the memory of the PRS-700. Then, I use calibre copy the books to the PRS-700. I also manually copy (drag) the .XML file to the appropriate folder on the PRS-700.

Will this method work for restoring the links between the notes and the actual books?
Most probably not, since IIRC it uses id numbers to establish the link and these will change when you re-upload
