[Apple iPod] Using the ipod via drag and dropping folders on to it.

I have read with interest how to transfer files back from the ipod to a
pc. That has helped my interest in the ipod. At the moment I use an MP3
player where I can simply open it as a hard disk, drag and drop my
music folders -
Artist A-C\Artist Name\album\Trackname.mp3
Artist d-F\Artist Name\album\Trackname.mp3

Etc

My MP3 player then has the same folder structure as my PC. When I
switch my MP3 player on, I go to select files...a bit like the PC,
select the playlist, or album folder, click the first track I want and
away I go.

My question is...without using iTunes software on the PC, can I plug in
the ipod, have it set to "enable disk use", and simply drag and drop
from my PC's music folder onto the ipod? And then when I start the
ipod, will it work :0)
