Subject: random partition/mount question

Newbie-like question about partitioning/mounting for the list:
If I install linux onto a drive, not giving /home it's own partition, how
hard would it be to change where /home is mounted from if I bought another
drive and wanted to put my /home files on there and have it be mounted to
/home instead of the existing files which would need to be moved over to the
new drive?
Was that long winded enough? Basically, can I get a new drive, mount it, cp
the /home directory files to it, and then set that drive to mount as /home
in /etc/fstab?
Any help would be amazing.
