So buy an external hard drive that you can use for backups.

The best solution is to buy at least two external hard drives for backups.

Yes you'd have your eBooks on your Reader. But you would not have the originals and you would not have any customization you've done to your Calibre database. It's a lot of work to put things back the way they were.
