If you decide to store files in JCR, no matter how you configure persistence you will only see JCR data structures in filesystem.
As Markus said, you can keep files in FS, actually you can keep your files anywhere in the webapp and just configure bypass in cms subchain ( config:/server/filters/cms/bypasses ) to expose the folder in file system. To activate such content, you can use packager. Other option would be to have network folder mapped for such files and share this between instances so you don't need to activate those files. Either way, I would recommend to create special data type to keep meta data about your files inside of Magnolia and to allow users to nicely select them like any other asset.
