Also, before tinkering, read through this: What are the benefits of using dynamic disks over basic? - Hardware - Storage
One downside is if one dynamic disk craps the bed, it's going to be a pain recovering data from any of them.
Backups, backups, backups.

That is physically not possible, I was about to say you can raid them together but I just remember that'd you can't raid two different data size drives together, now if you had 2 2tb hard drives, you'd be able to raid them together, on installation, You would not be able to raid them after your operating system is installed. In the bios I believe it would be raid 0.

That's not true.
He'd simply have to convert both to dynamic disks via disk manager. He would then be able to "span" one drive into the other. Drive size doesn't matter as all you're doing is merging the free space of the drives together.
You're likely thinking of RAID limitations but even then there's exceptions to the rules.
