smbd - let client move files on share without local copy

I have a file server running Arch and samba 4.0.5.
It serves a single share /mnt/share
This share is mounted on a notebook thats connected to the local network via WLAN and running windows 8 (tried OS X too).
When i now try to move or copy files on the share the file is downloaded to the notebook and then uploaded to target directory on the samba share.
Resulting in absolutely inacceptable performance.

basically i want: smb://server/share/folder1/bigfile1 -> smb://server/share/folder2/bigfile1 to have my HDD/SATA controller as speed bottleneck, not 50% of my WLAN connection speed.

Is there a way to change this somehow? Alternatively what options are out there to bypass this that dont boil down to "ssh to server, execute commands locally"?
(aka. scp/SFTP clients)
