If the games are in nkit format, i'd recommend to change them to iso.
Also, check the hdd's format. It should be FAT32 with a 32kb cluster.
And in case you're using Nintendont, you should update to the latest version and delete the cfg file so that everything updates properly (Nintendont's latest version is 6.500).
The games started off as nkit.iso I converted them to iso files. The files work perfectly when using them through the sd card. I read that the usb ports do not give enough power to read properly so I’ll be buying a y splitter and hopefully that fixes my harddrive method but they work through sd cad regardless

And nintendont is using v6.500 (wii)
Yeah, if the games work fine off an sd card, a y-splitter should fix any power issues the hard drive could have and get rid of loading problems.
Even then, I think it wouldn't hurt to get some clean dump of the games in iso, instead of just converting nkit.iso to iso. Mainly because nkit does have some data loss when converting between formats, and that may lead to some reading issues.

Would those be the ciso files or files that came already as iso?

Or do you mean like cleanrip them
If you get "NKit Fully Loaded" (as in, with Wii and GC partitions) and use the "Recover to ISO" option, the NKits will get recovered to full Redump-verified untouched ISOs.
I downloaded that one so I should be doing recover to iso instead of convert to iso?

This whole time I’ve been converting to iso so that could be my issue too
From the user guide:
In most instances, then, convert is all you'll ever need to do, unless you did something else to it before or you got it somewhere online.
Ciso works with Nintendont. I used them on an usb stick and no problems.
Though, I got this "an error occured" message with 2 discs games, when swapping discs . It starts the 2nd disc, but displays this message after a few seconds (Baten Kaitos iso). Luckily, BK is a game where it's possible to save between the disc swap, then quit, and start the 2nd disc manually with the save.
It's due to the usb stick being too slow. So I think your HDD just need more power. ^^

Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.+1 -

@Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.+1 -

They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite+1
