I downloaded Friday afternoon and my timers worked Friday night.If I was you I would unplug your EHD and if you got a joey unplug the power cord as well.....I have a HWS with one SuperJoey and one EHD. The HWS has some problems with the hard drive so Dish is shipping me another HWS. Should be here by the end of next week.
So, until my new HWS arrives, I thought maybe I'd go for the download and help test out the new Carbon UI on my old machine while I still have it. If I screw something up, at least I know that another HWS is going to be on the way.
My question is whether I should unplug my EHD before doing the button sequence to trigger the upgrade? I also have an important timer recording already set for early Saturday afternoon. Any chance that the Carbon UI download might disrupt that timer?
Another thing you wont be able to use your EHD after you download the new ui.theres no EHD icon in the menu to use it so your download sat will stay on your hopper or you can delete it.Thanks. Much appreciated!

You will be able to use it on your new hopper just not the one you download the new ui on....Ouch! That makes a difference. I just transferred all my recorded HWI content onto my EHD. If I can't access it after downloading the CUI, I'll probably just wait for the public release after my new HWI arrives.
Thanks for letting me know.
Wow_ Just how ready is this UI suppose to be? With reading the UI threads here I am getting the impression that even some of the usual dedicated enthusiasts here are becoming wary of this boondoggle.. The often used phrase "coming soon" just may not apply here.
