Terrible advice. The Calibre files are part of Calibre and using them with NAS, Sharing, or Google/Amazon/Apple/Dropbox online storage is asking for trouble. Use "Save to Disc" right click on a book or range of selected books,
that's what it's for.
40 years of programming & OS, 30 years network use and 25 years of databases.
Otherwise there is little point in using Calibre except to convert files.
