Would a smaller partition help? On the theory 2 smaller is better than a single huge (control space) one.

GPARTED can repartition a working drive. Depending on how full the drive, you may need to do in multiple stages:
1a)Defrag
1b)shrink the partition
1c) create the new partition
2) Move selected (you logic applied) old partition files files to their new home.
repeat 1a, 1b, expand the new partition to use the recovered space
