Also makes sense, thanks. Though I don't think it's really so risky with redundant backups.

Having said all that, experiment plans are on hold for now. My home server has just died (motherboard I think), and as I've shifted most of its functions to an offsite (headless) machine I'm may not fix or replace it in a hurry. I'm down to running Calibre just on my daily work laptop, so I don't really need to mirror the data for now. I'll report back if I do start running a 2nd machine again and try this out.
