I always keep the data partition as last in the drive. When it fills up,
I copy the old drive to a new larger drive with dd, resize the data
partition and the filesystem. This way I have been expanding capacity of
the original installation for many years.

In fact I do not use single drives and dd, but a bit more complicated
raid setup, but the principle is the same - increasing the data
partition first and growing its filesystem.

Best regards,

Pavel.
