Sonarr/Radarr can be set up to use hardlinks instead of copying files. That way the file will appear in both places but it will only take up the storage space a single time. I believe it's one of the advanced options under media management.
one caveat is the need for *rr apps to have direct access to the storage filesystem, and not connect through some filesharing protocol (smb, NFS, etc..) afaik. ISCSI might be good since it's presented as an actual system drive, speculating.
Works fine over smb and NFS. *arr apps have no way of knowing if a folder is a mounted share or not
Sure *are apps might not have a way of knowing but they are still limited by SMB's limitations. If you're sharing individual folders you simply can't hardlink across them. But my bad for thinking SMB didn't allow hardlink inside the same share mount point.
