Technical questions for the MPC2000xl and the MPC2000

Hi guyz, i 've got the 2kxl with a SD card reader on it and i have a few questions about sd cards...

I want to buy a card but i don't know if the 4GB or 8GB or even higher capacity cards will affect the easy function of the MPC...

So i am wondering if it's better to use a few cards with low capacity or a card with high..

I also want to know if it's ok to put the card when the MPC is open or it's better to put the card before i turn it on...

Generally i didn't find enough information or tips for the compatibility of sd cards and mpc's..

If anybony knows more about it i would appreciate any help

Different cards in different readers will act different.

I have only once gotten an sd card to work in my reader (2kxlse2) and I can't remember what brand or size it was.

I use cf cards for years now and have never had a problem with any brand, 1gb and below.

My cf drive is ATAPI meaning I can swap out cards while the mpc is on or at any time I choose. If you try this and cannot do it your drive is IDE, not hot swappable, it wont hurt your mpc to try.
