Like the hard drive I use for the wii in usb loader gx, can I hook that hard drive up to my pc and play my wii games off the hdd in dolphin? Thanks!
No. Use FAT.
WBFS is pointless now.
EDIT: fat32 that is.

FAT32 is pointless. Use NTFS or EXT2/3/4.
WBFS has its upsides and downsides, I still use it.
@OT: There is no reason why this is not technologically possible, but I'm not sure if Dolphin includes this feature; I just posted to bash Kiriashi.

For Wii gaming and general PC storage (except large files) FAT32 is best in terms of compability.
For Wii gaming and real PC storage (incl. big files) NTFS is best, but you cant run homebrew apps from an NTSC partition. So you need 2 partitions or a big SD card as FAT32.
For Wii Development, or anything that makes you write and delete files a lot for the Wii, WBFS is better due to fragmentation. You lose the ability to use the disc as anything but Wii storage though.
That's why we have partitions, dear sir. I have a 1TB WD External Harddrive partitioned as 150GB WBFS and 850GB Ext4. For all my Wii gaming and scifi/anime storage needs =D. Yes, I'm a fulltime Linux user.

I did mention dual partitions, but I guess I shouldve added it on the WBFS line as well. Im still drinking my morning coffee lol
