If it's one big volume, you can just replace the smaller disks one-by-one and let it rebuild, then the volume will grow automatically (have replaced 6x1TB disks with 6x2TB disks successfully with this method).
If you have two volumes and you want to ditch the second, move the data onto the first and extend the first, you'll need to move the data somewhere temporarily and destroy the second volume.
