Yes, NTFS supports mounting a drive to a folder instead of a drive letter. And yes, I have done in the past (but not with Sage) and it does work.
Doing this will likely confuse Sage about the amount of free space on that drive, so I would not suggest doing this with TV recording drives. But for imported media I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work.

Greg - is this all that different from WHS where you can have many physical drives mounted as one virtual drive? And most Sage/WHS users use this shared volume for storing Recorded TV.

It is similar in objective, but obviously the drive pool extender technology in WHS does significantly more than that.

I'm a bit confused by your intentions due to the way I have my SageTV server configured. I guess I don't understand why you wouldn't want to run in combined mode? As long as the directory structures are the same for two media imports they both appear as a single source rather than two.
To me it appears you're just trying to do the same thing as SageTV's combined folder mode but in a different way. As far as SageTV browsing is concerned it doesn't really matter where the video resides.

Oh, I see. I don't have any DVD's ripped to VIDEO_TS. All mine are losslessly ripped to MKV with MakeMKV. So mine show as regular imported videos rather than as a "DVD".
