Re: any way to connect my external HDD to my iphone 6s and view videos and photos stored in it

There are several third party adapters being sold that can make this possible. They make your HDD a wired/wireless NAS share which can then be accessed from your iPhone using one of many third party apps to play your videos and photos. I have listed a few below that would be appropriate, but I don't vouch for them personally as I have not used them.
