Maybe doable, but very risky ... LAN drive mappings and connections are much less reliable than connections to local devices, have many more transitory dropouts etc; LAN connections are way slower than connections to local drives; there's nothing to stop another mysql server from connecting to the same network datadir, so you're inviting security and data integrity nightmares.

So IMO your best bet is to install a local drive that's big & fast enough for the expected load. If there's not such a drive, you need a more advanced server machine.
