Re Google Drive: what you say is true as long as there is absolutely no possibility that two computers might access the "drive", and even then we can't be sure. The problem: Google Drive can replace the caibre ID in the path with its own "revision number", thereby destroying the library. I speak from experience: this happened to me. I would never recommend using Google Drive to backup a calibre library because you are simply asking for trouble. Murphy says that if you need to recover the library then it has been corrupted, simply because it is possible. YMMV.
