That said I'll pass on this info.

Calibre never supported UNC paths, but they worked previously. With the change to 0.7.x many folks have reported that UNC paths have stopped working properly with calibre.
I'm not actually using UNC shares for the service (I'm using UNC shares from my client machine and it's working perfectly on 0.7.5, even with the database redirected to a separate UNC share than the library). Technically you're supposed to always use the share paths on WHS, but I've found that using d:\shares is generally safe. So I'm using that and just dealing with local file system permissions, though everything should be setup and ready to go with UNC shares or mapped drives if needed in the future.
