Thanks everyone for the responses.

I am trying to ACL this directory, so there ARE components installed:

<Directory Id="ARCHIVEFOLDERDIR">
               <Component Id="aclArchiveDir" DiskId="1" 
Guid="0E0F8E2A-3646-4df0-AD30-C1F03FBA8E0F">
                    <CreateFolder Directory="ARCHIVEFOLDERDIR">
                        <Permission User="[ACL]" TakeOwnership="yes" 
GenericAll="yes" WriteExtendedAttributes="yes"/>
                        <Permission User="System" TakeOwnership="yes" 
GenericAll="yes" WriteExtendedAttributes="yes"/>
                        <Permission User="Administrators" TakeOwnership="yes" 
GenericAll="yes" WriteExtendedAttributes="yes"/>
                    </CreateFolder>
                </Component>
</Directory>

I am not sure I understand the distinction. It is a property for the location 
of the data directory.

The difference is that if it's a directory to which any components are 
installed, you won't be able to change it during maintenance mode. If it's just 
a property that's written to the registry but not in the Directory table, then 
it should work.
