If calibre changes this automaticaly according to the metadata info then everything is OK and I am one happy person and can just back up the Calibre library folder. If not, is the best way how to back up the books with correct filenames using the save to disk option?
Yes. The folder name changes with Author. The book folder changes with Title+ID(the DB record#). If you see 2 of the same title, the ID will be different because you have 2 Title entries in the Library LIST.

Beware of case only changes if switching OS. It is possible to muddle things up. and have a (almost)'duplicate' folder that Windows can not see.
