yeah you can do it with 1 SD,  but you needs multiple devices one for each pool 
 so when the consolidations happens it can read from one device and write to 
the other.

In my case I have one storage with multiple devices that can read both the 
AI-Incremental and AI-Consolidated pool.  (I also have one for an LTO that jobs 
migrate to over time).

Eg  in my sd.conf
Device {
  Name = FileStorage
  Media Type = File
  Archive Device = /mnt/bacula
  LabelMedia = yes;                   # lets Bareos label unlabeled media
  Random Access = yes;
  AutomaticMount = yes;               # when device opened, read it
  RemovableMedia = no;
  AlwaysOpen = no;
  Spool Directory = /mnt/spool/FileStorage
  Maximum Job Spool Size = 80000000000
  Maximum Spool Size = 160000000000
  Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1
}

Device {
  Name = FileStorage2
  Media Type = File
  Archive Device = /mnt/bacula
  LabelMedia = yes;                   # lets Bareos label unlabeled media
  Random Access = yes;
  AutomaticMount = yes;               # when device opened, read it
  RemovableMedia = no;
  AlwaysOpen = no;
  Spool Directory = /mnt/spool/server-vfull
  Maximum Job Spool Size = 80000000000
  Maximum Spool Size = 160000000000
  Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1
}
…..

but my Storage {}  config in dir.conf  has multiple devices

Storage {
  Name = File
# Do not use "localhost" here
  Address = <snip>                # N.B. Use a fully qualified name here
  Password = “<snip>"
  Device = FileStorage
  Device = FileStorage2
  Device = FileStorage3
  Device = FileStorage4
  Device = FileStorage5
  # number of devices = Maximum Concurrent Jobs 
  Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 5
  Media Type = File
  Heartbeat Interval = 60
}


So my on disk volumes can be managed by 5  ‘devices’  think of them as virutal 
tape drives.  One can read from a volume, and one can write to the another.
