It's different than my other WD EHD... but it's cheaper. Any reason it wouldn't work?

according to the dish website it supports usb2.0 yours shows 3.0..does that make a difference?

Do y'all just leave your EHD plugged in at all times and connected to your hopper at all times ?

I do. It has been that way with the 622 and now the Hopper. About 4 years now.

I am using the WD EHD noted here and it works. The cable design is USB 3.0, so the EHD connection is different than the usual USB 2.0 types. The end of the cable that goes to the satellite receiver is compatible with USB 2.0 and this EHD is USB 2.0 compatible.
