First off, please never ever send HTML message to mailing list like this. See 
how horrible it is when we're trying to read it as text? Please change your 
email setting.

To add and configure partition on new harddrive, check the manual here:
https://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-8.0-Manual/custom-guide/ch-disk-storage.html

After that, you need to copy data from your old /home partition to the new 
partition. Then edit /etc/fstab so that /home be mounted to the new 
partition. 
eg, if the new partition for /home is /dev/hdc1, edit the /etc/fstab to have 
line like this:
/dev/hdc1		/home		...
