How can you create a filesystem file for your OS?
There are Unix tools for making virtually every kind of disk image imaginable. And you can even put on partition tables not just FS images if you want to test with complete virtual hard disks. There are tools for ext*fs versions, ntfs, fat, fat32 and exfat as well: https://github.com/relan/exfat .

Projected File System
It's not really the same though. A Projected File System copies the files from the backing store to somewhere on the local file system when requested and then performs IO normally on the local files.
For an actual implementation of userspace filesystems on Windows see dokany: https://github.com/dokan-dev/dokany

Tutorial fo unlimited backup solution in these trying times with Backblaze, Raidrive and Dokany
Now that you are inside the Mirror folder with cmd, let’s start the Mirror function to attach a NAS or cloud folder as a local disk in order to get recognized by the BB client and be backed up. Write something like (read the dokany documentation for more details here): mirror.exe /r x:\ /l m , where x:\ should be the letter of the folder attached with Raidrive and m:\ the letter you want to assign to the new local disk.

Ask HN: What are some good resources for learning about low level disk/file IO?
I lead a project that included shipping a filesystem driver and a virtual disk on Windows.
What I did to learn the lower-level APIs, and perform initial testing on the driver, was write a "mirror" drive. The user-mode code pointed to a folder on disk, the driver made a virtual disk drive, and all reads and writes in the virtual disk drive went to the mirror folder.
On Windows, you can implement something like that using Dokany, Dokan, or Winfsp. On linux, there's the Fuse API. On Mac, there's MacFUSE.
Even if you don't do a "mirror" drive, understanding the callbacks that libraries like Dokany, Dokan, Winfsp, and Fuse do helps you understand how IO happens in the driver. Many IO methods provided in popular languages provide abstractions above what the OS does. (For example, the Windows kernel has no concept of the "Stream" that's in your C# program. The "Stream"'s Position property is purely a construct within the .Net framework.)

Another place to start is the OS's documentation itself. For example, you can start with Window's CreateFileA function. This typically is what gets called "under the hood" in most programming languages when you open or create a file: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/fileapi/...
