It certainly is possible, but probably beyond the scope of this mailing
list.  You might find better info on a list related to your distribution
or a general Linux group.

You may also want to look into LVM or software RAID.  That way you could
create one big volume out of all 3 hard drives and extend/reduce
partitions as you please.
