External Hard Drive Move Limit?

[frankpjr]

I just started using an external hard drive setup and know there use to be a limit on times to move the drive between receivers. So the question is ....is there a limit to move the EHD between receivers? Both receivers are VIP 722 units.

Maybe I am not understanding what you are asking but it seems to me you both asked and answered your own question in the same sentence....

Yes... 3 times.

That limit went away some time ago. Unlimited moves between receivers on the same account.

How long ago? They issued a company wide memo educating everyone on the limit less than a year ago....

Several months ago

Good... I always thought that was a retarded rule.

Shows you how often I have used EHDs on my DVRs.

Yeah, it was several months ago. The "rule" was there because of an authorization issue that they had to get fixed. When the "household key" started working right, they took away the 3 move rule.
