Hi,

I've been considering moving my Calibre library to either my Dropbox or Box sync folder to make keeping a backup of my library easier, only I'm not sure if this is a good idea?

I was hoping to hear from the community. To find out if anyone has experienced any problems, or if it's been smooth sailing?

It's hard to figure out the pros and cons of this approach.

I'd appreciate any and all advice.

Thanks!
