Adding second hard drive

903 Views 6 Replies 6 Participants Last post by  Papa
I bought a second external hard drive and a USB switch for my 722.
To install it do I have to call Dish like I did for the first hard drive install?
What is the procedure? Do I disconnect the first HD, and plug in the new HD to format it?

Yes. Just plug it in and go.
To answer your first question:
No, you don't have to call Dish - Once your activated it works on all drives, but only one at a time currently (might change later).
Is it possible to use the same HDD on a 612 and a 622 on the same account and switch back and forth as desired?

Yes, this is how it is designed to work.
