So, there should be only the two places to find that file(s). It appears that you can use a template to tell calibre where you want the book files stored, I am guessing but it seems likely that that would not change where the calibre.metadata file is placed.
That is correct with one addition. It is possible to disable the specific drivers for a device and use "Connect to folder". Whatever folder you choose is treated by calibre as a device. The calibre.metadata will be put into this folder, and it will be used as the base folder for the send to device template.
