I don't think that this is a good idea. Many if not most of the NAS problems relate to file and directory renaming when the title or author changes. Sometimes the renames simply don't happen, sometimes the new directory is created but the contents are not copied, and sometimes something else strange happens. The location of the database wouldn't improve the odds.

I don't know if/how this might affect the operation of calibre-server or Calibre Companion.
No effect. I use the option on the content server running on my VPS and when testing CC.
