Maybe, "ExtFile" helps you. It saves the file in the file system
(and keeps meta data in the ZODB).

"LocalFS" might, too.

When nothing helps, you can use an External Method and use
Python's file manipulation facilities (--> Python library reference)
to store the file in the file system. Be careful: there are security
risks.
