Great suggestion! I am looking at getting one of these for this purpose:

I may need to get the 256Gb size though. I store audiobooks (each is a ZIP file containing several MP3 files) in Calibre as well as eBooks. Audiobooks are relatively huge. My Calibre installation is currently 106Gb, so it would fit on a 128Gb flash drive, but I should probably get the 256Gb size to allow for future growth in audiobooks.
