external hard drive for vip222k does it work

[aask1826]

will a external hard drive work with vip22k?

[thomasjk]

No. Its the only VIP receiver that EHD's will not work with.

[gtal98]

It won't work with a 222 or 222k.

the company execs promised the feature more then an year ago - waiting ...

[RaymondG@DISH Network]

The ViP222/222k does not support the EHD feature. I haven't received any updates regarding whether or not the feature will be added.

Doubtful as adding DVR capability to the 222 would almost make it the same as the 722.

For the 211 there is no DVR equivalent.
