Off contract Hopper HD going on the blink so I wanted to BU the HD just in case I decided to stay with DISH instead of switching to Direct (which my wife wants to do because of money savings and their genie recording capacity).
I hooked up a clean 2TB WD drive, and after being formatted, I find that it didn't have enough room to BU 1.5TB of recorded programs. Am I missing something?
