I've been trying to export my photos on my ipad directly to my external drive. I followed the instructions to select the photos I want to export then pressing share, then pressing "Export Unmodified Originals". Then after I would select the drive where I want my photos and videos to be exported but i seems like the save button is unpressable. How can I export my Photos and vids to my external drive?

Presumably you are attempting to copy/export photos from your iPad's Photo Library. Have you tried using the Save to Files option from the Share Sheet instead of Export Unmodified Originals?
You should note that the Save button will not be enabled until you have navigated to a valid file-path location. Note also that you might not be able to save files/photos to the root folder of attached storage.
If necessary, using the native Files App, create a folder on the target drive; after creating the folder, you can repeat your attempt to save/export photos from your iPad Photo Library.
