Freespace you cannot add to anything. You need 'unallocated space'. Right click on that freespace and delete partition. Then do what was said above.

But then, I would not recommend a single partition of 500GB for the system drive. Unless you have a specific requirement for it I would allocate no more than 100GB to drive C and create a second partition for data storage.

And before you do anything ensure that all your data is backed up and you have the means to run a full recovery install in case you lose or corrupt your operating system.
