My 1st EHD bit the Dust

[KAB]

I was one of the first adopters when Dish enable EHD storage in 2007. Was always on for nearly 15 yrs. Noticed it missing this week, tried switching docks to no avail. Like we always say, "it's not if it's gonna fail, it's when. Fortunately it was only a 500 GB, so not as great a loss as a 2 or 3T.

I got two WDs 500 GB each in 2007 too. Still working. They run anytime my DVRs are on. They are probably getting close too.

Same here, EHD's for over 12+ years now. Luckily they are all of the spin-down type.

I think my EHD is around 10 years or so. The truth is, I don't even have a shot in heck of watching all of it.. most of it... a decent amount of it. I still have the Godfather trilogy on it... which were a few of the first things I saved to it. Watched the first one at least.
