If it's just a second drive for data with UFS, both GPT and MBR setup is shown in http://www.wonkity.com/~wblock/docs/html/disksetup.html If you mean adding a drive as in creating a mirror, the Handbook gmirror chapter shows that: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/geom-mirror.html For ZFS... well, that's different.
