As for the initial storage of the file to your server, were talking about waiting a few minutes more if you just saved directly to an HDD. Once again, if we assume the write speed of a slow HDD to be 110MB/s, that's ~100GB written every 16 minutes (though obviously as HDDs fill up, their write speeds get slower...).
Anyways, are you using something that would duplicate where your files could be found? Any symlinks or system snapshots?
