    External Hard Drive for Dish 211

    I'm debating turning my Dish 211 into a DVR. I've already purchased one of the Western Digital AV External Hard Drives for my 211K but I don't feel like spending another $100 on a second one.

I now have 5 HD TVs in the house and 4 of them are still using 311 receivers, while one has a 612 HD DVR. I called Dish to replace the 311s and they're sending someone tomorrow...
