It really depends on what you're doing. I actually have run some batch import tests and there was a huge speed up keeping the Calibre library on a separate drive from the OS when using mechanical disks.

I'm happy to keep my full Calibre libraries on SSD. I also use one of my older SSDs for quick copies/backups. I do backup to HDD, but that's more like a scheduled overnight task or when I'm not pressed for time. Not a need to make a copy and get out in 5 minutes kinda thing.
