I have been keeping the EHD connected constantly since recovering back to factory new status. Are you suggesting that I don't leave it connected while I am using Calibre?

I went to the link, and I see it suggests not running on more than one networked library. My laptop is connected to my home network, but Calibre is only on my laptop, and is not accessed by either of the other two computers on the network.
@jeremysnana - The reason I drew your attention to a specific couple of sentences in that FAQ section, was because its about the use of file synch products. Forget the network stuff for now

The NTI Backup Now web site refers to a Continuous Back feature (see first attachment), elsewhere its refers to a Sync/Continuous Backup Method (see second attachment)

Here's a recent thread where a calibre user lost some books ==>> Disappearing Books. I'm reasonably confident the disappearing books was caused by running Apple's Time Machine/Capsule and calibre concurrently, the OP (madeleinelevy) saw fit to take my advice and to not run Time Machine concurrently with calibre.

As I see it the NTI Backup Now Continuous Backup feature has similar features to the Apple Time Machine product. So I'm suggesting you might want to consider disabling Backup Now when you're running calibre.
