The answer is based upon assumption that you don't have LVM. If you have LVM, then just extend it. If you don't have it, then following is the only option:

1. First mount the new drive to some location such as /newdrive.
2. Next, create a sym link to it from /var/www/hml. Eg:
ln -s /var/www/html/newdrive /newdrive

That way, you can store contents in /var/www/html/newdrive if you wish to use new drive or /var/www/html (except newdrive) if you wish to use old drive.
