Extremely slow network storage

For a couple of weeks now, it's taken >15 minutes (sometimes up to 20) to load a 70B model from network storage in CA-MTL. This is, of course, paid time on the GPU while waiting for it (as well as being quite inconvenient) - it's actually quicker to download the model fresh from an internet server every time rather than waiting for it to load from network storage. Is the "network storage" actually on the same network as the GPU server, or is it on some cloud somewhere? Why is it so slow?
