"And why ever would the FBI allow an outside group to inspect the hard drives instead of doing the investigation themselves?"

The FBI didn't "allow" it. The DNC delivered the servers to the third party company and then refused to allow the FBI to inspect them. However, it does not appear that the FBI made any attempt to subpoena them to do an independent investigation.

As I posted on another thread about Comey:

Fidelity? Bravery? Integrity? COMEY?? The FBI used to command respect.....now it is an embarrassment of incompetence or actual criminality.
