    EHD Folders

    Is it possible to create folders on an EHD? My wife has a number of different folders on the internal drive and we are getting low on disc space. I would like to move folders and recordings to an EHD but I don't know how to do it. Help!

    We have two Hoppers and two Joeys. I would like to replace one of the Joeys with a Super Joey. When I contacted Dish, they told me that this can't be done. Is there a good reason for this or were they just giving me a line.
