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.
