It seems that you already have looked at the solutions:
  1. An always-up content server on your local network, where you pay for the machine and electricity to run it, where it will go down if power fails at your home, and where you are responsible for maintaining the hardware.
  2. An always-up content server in the "cloud" somewhere where you pay someone else to keep it running and to maintain it.
  3. Keep your entire library on your reader device, updating it from calibre on demand. I will mention that CC works for this, given your questions on the CC forum.
  4. Keep your library on a windows/linux laptop/tablet. synchronized somehow with the "master" copy.
  5. Keep your library on a cloud service like dropbox, accessing it in whatever way it supports (Calibre Cloud, calibre OPDS, etc)
Up to you.
