Does Windows 7 have anything resembling a LVM?

Can I take two disks and combine them into one? Essentially take two hard disks and make them one "virtual" disk like a LVM in linux?

I think that is called dynamic disks.
From disc management help...
When you change a basic disk to dynamic, you can create volumes that span multiple disks (spanned and striped volumes). Dynamic volumes can be used in most but not all situations.
Basic disks support only primary partitions, extended partitions, and logical drives. Basic disks have been supported in operating systems since MS-DOS, while dynamic disks have been supported in operating systems since Windows 2000.
