Well, to find out, one will have to go to the Gparted site and browse through the change logs of the latest releases.

I have done my checking, I was asking to be informed if I was wrong! ;)

From what I can tell, It seems the main Gparted NTFS resize issues on these OSs' were fixed some time ago, please inform me if I am wrong. Thanks

Or try it in their own install   ;)

Desmolinux,
To answer your question. Stick in that second 1 tb drive. Format it via Windows or Linux as ntfs. Both linux and Windows will see it as a data disk fine.  I favor using external usb drives for this as long as the slower access time is not a problem.

Thanks cpufrier, I installed the new HD, start W7 and formated the drive, now I can see it in windows and linux, and have no problem with Grub.

Thanks everybody.
