Send to/Full Disk Drive

I am trying to clear up room on my C drive. When I bought this laptop the hard drive was divided into 2 drives. I am trying to move some files to the D drive or move the whole document folder to the D drive to create space on the C drive.
Is there anyway to have the D drive display in the "Send to" when you right click on a folder? Is there anyway to utilize a move command to transfer these folders/documents? Is there anyway to change the default to download to the second drive as I have the habit of not paying attention to the download destination?

1. Move the Documents folder to a different location by right-clicking Documents > Properties > Location Tab > Move, select a Destination and follow the prompts. The location can be restored by choosing Restore Default.
2. Go to the Windows Orb (Start), type shell:sendto and press Enter. Right-click on an empty part of the window then New > Shortcut and Browse to your D drive.
