Split your disk into multiple partitions, you will be able to newfs again a
partition after moving stuff in other partitions, and moving back to the
newly newfs'd partition.
You will be able to resize partitions with the same action:
part1 part2 other parts
|-------------|-------------|----------------
move every file from part1 to other parts
move every file from part2 to other parts
|-------------------|-------|-----------------
edit disklabel to change size (be careful) and newfs new part1 and new part2
move stuff back.
