Dish Network DVR’s have the most recording and storage space available in the industry. Still, with all of the great programming available these days, the need for more storage space may at some point become an issue. Consider a DVR External Hard Disk Drive as a solution. Dish Network’s ViP-Series DVR’s are compatible with USB 2.0 hard disk drives. These drives can increase your DVR’s storage capacity by more than 400 hours of standard digital recording and nearly 100 hours of high-definition recording.
An external hard disk drive (HDD) makes it possible to save all of your favorites and not be forced to delete a program to make room for more. Dish Network has announced that any future DVR’s manufactured will be compatible with this technology, but for now Dish has three models that will work; the ViP612 DVR, ViP622 DVR and the ViP722 DVR.
To get started simply connect a compatible USB 2.0 hard disk drive to a compatible Dish Network receiver. You will be able to view content from the HDD, or transfer content back to the DVR. All major brand name external HDD’s sold in stores are compatible. Although USB is the most popular choice for hard disk drives, it is preferable to use one with an external power supply. Which ever you choose, be sure to dedicate that drive for DVR purposes only. Using the HDD for computer files may cause corruption of your programming content.
When the HDD is connected for the first time, you will be prompted to reformat the drive – If you choose to, anything previously stored on that drive will be lost. If you choose not to reformat you will not be able to transfer content from your DVR. Be sure to remove anything of importance before reformatting.
The supported Dish Network DVR receivers have two USB 2.0 ports on the back panel. At this time only one device such as an HDD or a PocketDish device can be connected to the receiver at a time. If you connect two devices simultaneously the DVR will simply ignore the last device connected. The trick here is to fully install and format the first device to the DVR, then install and format a second if you wish. This will allow you to dedicate one drive for let’s say movies and the other for sports. If you choose to remove the HDD you can watch or transfer the content to other compatible DVR receivers, however the receiver must be registered on the same customer account.
Transferring content is easy with Dish Networks’ user-friendly interface. From the Dish Multimedia Menu simply select USB Storage. From here you will be given two choices; Manage Device – this will allow you to see a list of programs already stored on the HDD and Send to Device – this is the option to transfer DVR programming from the My Recordings list on your DVR receiver to the HDD. If a program on your DVR contains copy protection it may impact your ability to transfer to the HDD. If it does, a pop-up message with more information will appear. For more information on copy protection restrictions visit www.dishnetwork.com and search for “copy protection.”
Within Manage Device you will find options to Restore – transfer programming from the HDD back to the DVR receiver, Play – watch programming directly from the HDD and Delete – remove programming from the HDD.
