If you already know for sure you will add a third node you can set up your system with stacked devices from the beginning: http://www.drbd.org/users-guide-8.3/s-three-nodes.html ... and run without third node. This has the advantage that there will be no service downtime when adding the third node. If you want to start with a two-node setup, this is also possible but you need to prepare your setup to keep some free space at the end of the device for the internal meta-data that is obligatory for a stacked resource. No problem if you use LVM, then you can resize the device later ... or you create a file system smaller than the device ... or change to external meta-date for the lower resource later ... there are several possibilities ...
