Is it possible to mount a hard drive and make /root recognize it?

For example I have a 120 gb  drive and I would like to add
another 40 gb drive but I would like my /root  to increase its size,
from 120 to 160 gb.

Is this possible and if so how would I accomplish it?

Could you please clarify what you mean by /root ? Do you mean the space taken up by the root user account at /root, or do you mean the filesystem mounted at / which is the root filesystem? I find it hard to believe that you would need 40GB of space for the root user under the /root directory.

The output of the "mount" command would be helpful here to see what you are up to.
