I believe it will deactivate uploads.

You can mount another file storage on you server and have an LDAP attribute 
ready for the location on the owncloud server (per user). Point to it using 
"User Home Folder Naming Rule" (see 
http://doc.owncloud.org/server/5.0/admin_manual/configuration/auth_ldap.html#special-attributes )
