When you have the existing files/dirs, would it help to take an existing 
dir "$path/old", create a new dir "$path/new", and then do

cd $path/old
find . -type f -exec "ln {}  ../new/" \;
rm *
mv ../new/* .

to get the inodes created in the new space? This could be necessary in 
case the first 1TB is full, and no more inodes can be created. I'm just 
not sure if that would be enough.
