Only 1 nomad unit can be activated per account.
Storage
Your nomad comes with built-in storage capacity. It can hold approximately 20 hours, depending on
the type of recorded programming. If you fill up your nomad with programming, the oldest piece of
programming will automatically be deleted to make room for new programming. Programs will also
be automatically deleted from the nomad if you delete them from your HD DVR. As long as you have
storage capacity on your computer or mobile device, the programming will remain on your computer
or mobile device for 30 days unless otherwise deleted.
You can expand your storage capacity by plugging an external hard drive or USB storage device
into the USB slot on the back of the nomad.
Note: The USB hard drive will be formatted for use with your nomad, so make sure you do not have any
files you would like to keep on that drive.
