If you do a search on MobileRead, you will find quite a few threads where people have been using various forms of network storage to store their calibre libraries. One phrase (or variant thereof) is "it worked without problems for years". Advice is to stop Dropbox syncing before opening calibre, never access the library from more than one machine at a time, etc.

You might also want to check: I am getting errors with my calibre library on a networked drive/NAS?
