Can I take the external drive from a hopper and read it from a vip 722?

No, they use different software. If you plug it into a 722 you will be asked to format.

So EHD will work from 722 to Hopper, but not Hopper to 722?

Since the Hopper went to the new GUI some time back I don’t think it will work either way. I don’t have a 722 to test it so I can’t prove it either way. It may well work. I guess the OP could try it to prove it either way. It should be said that the Hopper and 722 must be on the same account number.

It used to work that way. But I’ve learned some changes are bad…

My EHDs moved from 722 to HWS and they worked. They also still worked when I moved them to my Hopper 3s. Not sure if moving EHDs back to 722 will work. I would think they should. Like you, I think the OP could try.
