Q: how to set up second hard drive

My Mac Pro has two, 1 TB hard drives.  Originally I planned on using the second hard drive for Time Machine.  However, instead of using Time Machine, I now backup by cloning my first hard drive to an external hard drive using Carbon Copy Cloner.  I haven't used Time Machine in about a year and don't expect that I need to use anymore.

 

My first hard drive is filling up -- I have about 150 GB unused on it, and with video editing I am getting squeezed.  What is the best way to configure my system so that i can use my second, now dormant, hard drive? Is there a way of ganging them together so that my system acts as if there is one, 2 TB hard drive?

 

Thanks in advance.

Mac Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9.5), 32 GB RAM
