The technology is simply called HDD spanning. You bascially just add the two physical HDDs together to one logic HDD. It's a Non-RAID drive architecture. Alternative names are SPAN or BIG.

In contrary to a RAID you can span together various different disks with different sizes and technologies. As amazing this might sound... it bears a lot of issues and disadvantages. Hence why I don't recommend it. Honestly, I don't even know a proper use case or someone who would really use it these days. RAID is state of the art nowadays.

Hm I see, I didn't actually go into that much detail when I was doing my research, I was just looking for an easy way to add some space from the one tera HDD to my C drive, but it wasn't do-able from the program I was using so I just ended up moving the other partition to the tera drive and adding the (now clear) partition's space to C drive.
