You're talking about PA4X 76 key or Pa4X61 key.
Does that fit in 61 key without convert kit?

You don’t need a conversion kit to add an SD card - you MUST disconnect keyboard from power supply during installation. See p1088 of current User Manual.

What is the SD you use?
Best sollution i can offer is the mini sized usb on back.
there is from 20 euros 128 gbt and i think its OK!

dimitri,

Just buy an SD card with more memory. They are cheap now.

Unless I am misunderstanding your problem.

I can't use any other SD card because this particular SD is used as a "password key" for my .set!

Hi,

you can use ( and buy ) almost any notebook HD ( or SSD ), 2.5 inches factor.

I must admit that I´m not sure if in any PA4X the needed HD-adaptor is included ( in German PA4X-MUSIKANT it is ).

Stick is an option as well as card ( ok, card not for you ;) ), but remember : No sd-card odr usb-stick lasts forever ( some of them 10 years, others 3 only month ), you MUST HAVE a backup, better two backups.

Of course the writing speed is much slower than from a HD, except you use highspeed usb-drives. I don´t recommend the cheap usb-sticks like 64 gb for 8€, a good and fast one ( writing speed >50 MB/s ) may cost 30 € ;)

Well, It,s realy Stupid to use only 2 GB on SD eith a Lock,

They take like 300 euros for a set file (SD) and just give you 2 GB of space , Stupid realy.
You shud never buy that.
8 GB Is minimum for that .
