Expand the capacity of the existing VM, add a new partition then move data over from one partition to another from within the same VM? What are your thoughts? Both options seems reasonable to me. If choosing to use the same machine, I would not expand the existing disk; rather I suggest adding a *new* disk to VM (formatting it with EXT4).
