Some people do have their calibre libraries on a NAS, but sometimes they have ran into problems and have had to revert, others have failed to get it to work. If you don't have it running on a NAS already, I suggest you keep it local for now and wait for version 3.

It's been working on the NAS since 2011, but the searches via the network page were a DRAGGGG (11500 books). I've been lucky to not be plagued by NAS problems it seems
