Use VARCHAR by placing the physical path on the server. Take a look at the entire application to see if it is not necessary to have a table just for files, so you could put more information about the files in this table.
How to:
- physical path on the server
- file url
- file size
Among many other information that could come from the archive.

Use a VARCHAR and store only the physical path of the file on your server

If the file link is complete, with http: // ... use VARCHAR with Size 250 (the maximum supported in a VARCHAR field). If you see that the field is too long and exceeds 250 characters, use TEXT that supports many characters.
