you can not run a database server on unreliable network storage. you
really shouldn't run a database server on any sort of network file
shared storage (SMB/CIFS, etc).
Delayed Write means the operating system has cached data in memory that
its unable to write to the disk, so it doesn't know what to do since it
already told the application that it was OK to continue.
