It depends on the number and size of files you want to store. If you have a small amount of files you can store them into the database however, the database size will get bigger by time. On the other side the directory you can assign a specific space you need based on your size of the files and you can leverage other advantages like to open the file write into it and so on.
This a brief and for sure there are other benefits for each option but hopefully my answer give you a little insight.
