Hi and welcome!
How much of a newbie are you? Do you know what partitions, BSD slices
and disk labels are and how they work? If you don't know what I'm
talking about the easiest and safest is to put a new/unused hard drive
into your box and install FreeBSD on it.
There are proprietary tools like PartitionMagic that allow you to resize
NTFS partitions but I don't know how well they work and how safe they
are. *Always* create a backup of your data before using tools like this.
I'm not aware of any free program that has advanced support for NTFS.
