• Good for archiving DVR content
  I will just add my confirmation that this drive works for the purpose of archiving material from your DishNetwork DVR. I have Dish Network with the Turbo HD package (I'm not sure what my DVR model number is), and I have successfully used this drive to archive movies from the DVR. It works perfectly for this purpose. Moreover, you can play the movies from the hard drive without having to transfer them back to the DVR before viewing. Very handy.

• Another Happy Dish User
  After the one review confirming this unit works with Dish DVRs I bought one to use with my VIP 622. The is the maximum size that will currently work with the Dish DVRs. I plugged it in, went to the DVR Media Menu and formatted the drive. Then I moved about 50 GB of movies and shows to the HD which I was surprised to find would take 3 hours but it did it with no problems and the VIP622 allowed viewing of TV while the transfer took place.

• Excellent for Dish Network ViP Series External HDD
  This product was purchased for exclusive use as an external HDD for Dish Network's ViP 722. The "Home Edition" of the WD My Book has 3 ports: USB 2.0, Firewire, and SATA. This makes this HDD extremely flixable should it be decided to use the HDD for PC or even Tivo.
  This HDD works flawlessy with the Dish ViP 722. It was connected to the 722 right out of the box and quickly formatted for immediate use. Transfers and playbacks to and from this HDD have been flawless. It is quiet and very good-looking.... more info
