    You can just put the music files on it and when you open them from any computer it will use that particular computers music player. You don't need iTunes on the actual external. Unless I don't get what you're saying?

    You can take the songs from itunes but you may need a other program, they often have an id protector that prevents coping. you can get a program on line for this, search fairtunes, this is one of them

    Rip them from the CD's to your internal hard drive then move them to the external.

    You can save a little money and get something called an external hd enclosure. You put an internal hd in it and it becomes an external drive.

    Switch your drive letter in the options box to your external drive
