    Unless you're willing to just move mount points around, you're going 
    to lose your uptime.  ( Well at least I wouldn't recommend adding
    and yanking drives in a running system!!! ).

    Easiest way is to add a new drive, partition it up a bit, and move
    your mount points around to give yourself more space in the areas
    that need it.
