The slave is generaly just like an extension to "My Documents", you create folders and store any thing that you wish to archive, back up or just generally not access that often. I have all my music files, photos and software that came as a download saved in different folders on my slaves.

That is correct, just create a folder and when you download something or want to save something, click download/save and just browse/navigate to the slave drive and applicable folder.
