I just bought a WD Passport 250 GB USB external drive and my 622 does not seem to recognize it. This drive is very compact and uses the USB port for power which is why I got it to begin with. Is that the issue? Is there a list of drive requirements such as power sourse, rpm's etc. posted somewhere by DISH or someone else so when I get a replacement drive, it will actually work? Thanks!

There has been very little success reported with USB powered notebook drives. You need one with it's own power supply.
What KAB says. A friend of mine tried a USB powered drive and it was not recognized. He plugged it into a powered USB Hub and the hub to the DVR and works like a champ.
