    No idea in the world what a g slim external drive is

     

    The most general way to save photos on an EHD is to select them in Photos and export to a desktop folder then drag that folder to the EHD and delete it form the desktop

     

    Depending on that the details about the EHD you have are there may be easier ways or there may not be

     

    Their web site sounds like you probably can drag the photos library to it or if you only want photos rather than the entire library export directly to it
