First I create a small library on my computer I guess, then I plug the external drive, and create the second library on it ? But how ?
(I've been using Calibre for years but only for basic stuff)
Click on the library icon, Switch/create library -> Create an empty library at the new location. Choose a location on your local drive. After you've done that, add those books you want to keep on your computer to it.

Then, connect your external drive and repeat the library creating procedure, only now choose a location on your external drive; and add the rest of your books to that library. Remember to switch to the local library (click on the library icon and then on the name of the local library) before you eject and remove the external drive.
