Just be sure to eject the drive before disconnecting the USB cable to the ereader, or you can corrupt the filesystem on the ereader.

No such folder on my PRS-505 so do I need to create it? When I plug in my USB cable to the reader I see a folder named "Database" It contains folders marked "Media" and "Cache". I have tried placing epub book files (unprotected) in all three folders (not simultaneously) and they do not show up in the book menus at all. I also tried placing them in the home area beside the Database folder and they are still invisible. Very frustrating. These files sideload fine in a Kobo. HELP!
