and, lastly, not destroy the data that is on the RAID drive.

That's on a separate disk/disks, so it wouldn't be affected by any of this.

Help!

YAST won't let me create a swap partition on the sd* drive. Should I just create one in fstab and pray it comes up after a reboot?

Thank you in advance.

Well, no, fstab won't create anything. Your problem is that /data takes up all space on the sdb drive. So you're already using the whole thing. Do you actually have anything on it, or is it just an empty partition? If you have something on it that you want to keep, then you either have to shrink it (dangerous, not recommended) or back up the data somewhere, delete the partition and create the partitions you do want to have on it If you don't, then just delete the partition and create the partitions you want to have
