External Hard Drives
Dish Network
customers can get more from their receivers! Did you know you
can add an external hard drive (EHD) to a model ViP® 211/k
receiver to give it DVR capabilities, or to a model ViP 612,
ViP 622 or ViP722/k receiver to increase its storage capacity!
Best of all, there is no monthly fee associated with an
EHD, just a one-time activation fee of $40! Keep in mind that
customers who want to activate an EHD to archive content on a
DVR receiver and an EHD to convert a non-DVR receiver will be
charged one $40 activation fee for each.
DISH Network
does not sell EHD equipment, but most brand-name manufactured
EHDs are compatible! A minimum 50GB of storage is required.
The EHD must be USB 2.0 compatible and have an external power
source.

Ninja Assassin – Premieres March 16 th
–
Taken from the streets as a
child,
Raizo (Rain) is transformed into a trained
killer by the Ozunu Clan, a secret
society. But haunted by the merciless
execution of his friend by the Clan,
Raizo breaks free from them...and vanishes. In
Berlin, Europol agent Mika
Coretti (Naomie Harris) has stumbled upon a
money trail linking several
political murders to an underground network of
assassins from the Far East.
Defying the orders of her superior, Ryan
Maslow (Ben Miles), Mika digs into
top secret agency files to learn the truth
behind the murders. Her investigation
makes her a target, and the Ozunu Clan sends a
team of killers led by the
lethal Takeshi (Rick Yune), to silence her
forever. Raizo saves Mika from her
attackers, but he knows that the Clan will not
rest until they are both
eliminated. Now, entangled in a deadly game of
cat and mouse through the
streets of Berlin, Raizo and Mika must trust
one another if they hope to
survive...and finally bring down the elusive
Ozunu Clan. Rated R.
