I wonder... if I'll use the script and enable the 48bit LBA, I think Disk

Will I be able to partition and format that portion and using it, WITHOUT

Using the script and enabling the 48bit LBA, can in itself be dangerous for
the data residing on the drive(s)?

I believe you will lose your data when you re-Partition.

You could use Carbon Copy Cloner and copy it to an external drive (have one?), re-Partition the internal drive after initiating the LBA48 idea, and then copy it back using CCC.
