Empty folders with book names on Kindle

Look at the memory on my Kindle PW I find a lot of folders with names on the form Book-name_long-string-of-gibbrish, for example:

Travels with C & S_269cf065-c374-465b-8899-405d072b4ea9.sdr

This is a "book" which was written in HTML, converted, and loaded from Calibre. The actual .asw3 file is kept under the author name.

Is there any reason to keep these files, or can they be deleted from the Kindle?
