Ok so I recently got a portable external hard drive and a USB hub top power it up. The Wii U reads it, but I can't transfer any games to it. It cashed and says error 160-2701. Is there a way to fix it?

Can't say for sure, but I'm betting you have a hard drive that the Wii U needs you to either plug into an outlet for power, or for it to have one of those cords that connect it to 2 USB ports to get full power, either method should work. This is the case for many models of HDD. Mine works fine when plugged into a regular wii with just one cord, but in a Wii U, while it will power on, it for some reason doesn't receive enough power to save, read, and transfer to unless I use one of those cords that power up the HDD by connected to 2 USB ports.
I have it connected it too a high speed usb 2.0 (with ten ports) and i have 2 ports connected to the outlet(1 power source ans 1 usb plug) and i keep getting an error. should i put in another power source?
