-It is already possible. You can use the addreplica Collection API with a 
custom dataDir.-

Ah I see you have already seen the collection API, my bad. What are you 
expecting of Solr? Do you want to e.g. configure multiple data dir paths for a 
Solr node and have Solr allocate shards taking that into account?

>             Project: Solr
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>    Affects Versions: 4.10.3
>         Environment: HDP 2.2 / HDP Search
>            Reporter: Hari Sekhon

> Request to support multiple dataDirs as indexing a large collection fills up 
> only one of many disks in modern servers (think colocating on Hadoop servers 
> with many disks).
> While HDFS is another alternative, it results in poor performance and index 
> corruption under high online indexing loads (SOLR-7255).
> While it should be possible to do multiple cores with different dataDirs, 
> that could be very difficult to manage and not humanly scale well, so I think 
> Solr should support use of multiple dataDirs natively.
