You can follow the other recommendation about mounting SMB shares under Linux or eventually setup an SSH server on Windows and use SSHFS to mount it on the Linux machine. SSH is usually faster than SMB however both of them will have issues, what if the network goes down the windows machine sleeps, reboots, crashes or someone steps on a network cable etc? You are better by avoiding those kinds of setups all together. It is very likely that the connection will drop and the Linux machine will have trouble writing on the mount causing errors and screwing the files.
