I think the best way is that the users to be forced by the AD policy to read/write/save directly on server. So, Samba AD & File Server.
The load of the network will be significantly lower, even if 100 users will save in the same time an own document.
The server will function 24h/day. Will be easier to make backup from one location (the File Server) to a backup location, whatever is that location, during night.
Also, the security will increase.
