Knocka: On my iMac here's what I do. The directory that I add books from is: /volumes/8gb/books/ As you can tell that is a portable USB drive where I store all the books as downloaded.

I then Add them to calibre. Calibre copies the book to my Calibre folder which is ~/dropbox/1-Calibre

This way I can access my library from any of my computers by installing calibre and telling it that is where my library is. No save to disk needed.

I think all you need to do is place the books you want to add in a different directory that calibre doesn't use internally and add them.

Let me know,
