Need help with saved program transfer to external hard drive

[cncace]

I need some guidance regarding the transfer of my saved programs on my VIP 722k. Upgrading to Hopper and one Joey and I want to transfer my saved programs to my new Hopper. Dish gave me conflicting info on what type of external hard drive I need. Also, is there a "fee" involved? I read somewhere that there may be one.

Maximum 2tb (Dish supported), USB external powered. Many of us use Western Digital Elements drives. There is no Dish fee for use.

Please visit this link for specific information on the type of EHD you will need. There is not an fee to use an EHD to transfer recordings. https://www.mydish.com/upgrades/products/expand-dvr-storage

Once transferred, I would just leave it on the EHD.
