Wouldn't the transfer rate for usb-attached HDDs be pretty slow?

Yes, unless it is USB 3.0 (which I doubt).

If you would have informed yourself you would know that all four usb ports in the Wii U system are 2.0. I think we knew this since last year. 2.0 is fast enough for HD content, it's just slower when transfering, but if it's reading the files it should be fine.

Networking
Wii U can access the Internet via wireless (IEEE 802.11b/g/n) connection. The console features four USB 2.0 connectors – two in the front and two in the rear – that support Wii LAN Adapters.
