How can I merge the highlighted partition with the 500 GB unallocated space at the end of the drive? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

This is an external ssd, so I'm not super worried about things going wrong.

Certainly you can move the partitions to do that. But you can also make a dm-linear (lvm) volume out of both partitions and use that. On ssd there won't be any performance impact.
