Subject: Can one install a WD2010 without needing a complete reformat?
Summary: probably a silly question

 For various reasons I'd really really like to install a (large)
second HD soon, and I haven't been able to find a WD2010 locally. What
I'm wondering about is if I install and start using the drive
(obviously just the first 1024 cylinders!), can I later install a
WD2010 and use the remaining tracks (as a new partition) without
having to back up and reformat the drive?

 Please email information, and I'll post a summary.
