Hey guys

So I've got a WD 250GB external HDD which I'm currently using for time machine and a normal external HDD. I have 80GB dedicated to the time machine system and 170 dedicated to the external HDD partitions. But I'm running out of space on the normal hard drive partition, and I still have space on my time machine HDD to spare, so I was wondering if it was possible to repartition the drives (reallocate hard drive space) without formatting the drive itself?

I think it's possible, as I've heard of this before, but if anyone has any useful input that would be much appreciated
