I've never done it myself, but I understand that one way to do it is
with tablespaces:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/static/manage-ag-tablespaces.html

As I understand it, you create a new tablespace on the new disk, then
move your database objects to it.

How that plays with Windows, I've no idea.... I'd guess that changing
the drive letter might well cause Bad Things to happen.
