I bought a beautiful 23 ACD (an older acrylic model) on Ebay and it

new iTunes or does migration assistant allow the iPod to be used on
the new computer without reset/erase?
No need to erase your iPod. I'm on my fourth Mac

Dan is correct. Multiple platter HDs' use segments of all disks for
each partition simultaneously so the HD does'nt have to jump around to
