Try to add an New SSD into system.
I know to get the best performance should avoid LVM, but for easy extend I will using LVM here.
First make sure you are using newer fdisk (added SSD alignment support after 2.17), CentOS 7 came with 2.23.2.
# fdisk /dev/sdc
Welcome to fdisk (util-linux 2.23.2).
Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them.
Be careful before using the write command.
Device does not contain a recognized partition table
