When i connect Kobo to PC, it looks like Calibre created folders based on authors name and it becomes a whole lot of folders because apparently depending on book's source some authors are listed First, Last name as one folder and Last, First name as another folder.

Will it help divide my collections of 50 books+ into smaller ones?
A bit odd. When I send an ebook that has series information to my Kobo, on the next connection, the series information is added to the metdata and my Kobo displays the series and can search/sort on it.

If your metadata is consistent as to the author name, you will not get the mishmash of first/last or last/first. What is the save template in your Kobo Touch or Kobo Touch Extended configuration (at the bottom of the File Formats tab)?

I would suggest removing the series information from being used for collections since your Kobo ereader supports series without needing those collections.
