If you look at the calibre FAQs and SQLite's site, both recommend not using an SQLite database on network attached storage.

There have been so many messages over the years where the basic message is: I've been using calibre stored on my NAS/cloud storage for years and now my library/database is corrupted, my library won't open, etc.

Store your library/database locally and keep one-way synced backup on network storage and, for my paranoia, on locally attached storage as well.
