I do store the backups on a NAS, but it's only used by my and Hubs, and he doesn't use Calibre, so it's pretty safe.
Just flummoxed!
Original setup is still on my Windows7-running laptop, which I wish was still supported.
How long would you expect the Restore function to take for a db of 16,000'ish books?

It is not ALL about how many. It is also how BIG the books are.
Your HD has a Write Rate - the A/V overhead (

Pause that IF you are not doing anything else at the time) IIRC it took me over an hour for a 13G Library with just a over the net copy (~MBps write)
