First off, I would like to say thank you for the fast responce on this matter.  
Sorry that I can't quote all of you, but yo know who you are.  :)

Okay, before I start reading links I need this question answered:

Am I able to take one of my drives, convert the unused space to ext3/lvm and 
start to copy files directly to it?  Of course I'll use Acronis Disk Director 
to make the convertion.

I don't really trust GParted.  It didn't work to well in the past for me.
