I bought a Clara HD a while ago, and use it to sideload books. My old ereader was a Kindle, and I libertated all those books and converted them to ePub

I copied the books over to the Clara HD using Calibre on my Mac. I then plugged it in again about an hour later to copy over one more book. When I did that, the books transferred, but Calibre never added the green checkbox to show that the item was added to the device.

So, I ejected the device and unplugged the microUSB cable. The device rebooted, and I came up to blank screen. After a minute the screen flashed, but stayed blank. A dozen reboots later, and the thing finally came back up again, but it ran through the setup assistant again and made me log back into my Rakuten account. And the device was wiped. Not a single book on it.

This is now the third time this has happeneded to me since I bought the device.

Is this a known issue, or am I just unlucky? It's easy enough the put the books back, but losing the reading position for the sideloaded books really sucks.
