An exact number isn't really possible. different key sizes will of course consume different amounts of space on the card.
I've a customer with a nCipher HSM and they have a 'couple hundred' (I'm not up to date on the exact number) keys loaded.

Not sure - I've lost my login to Thales and the mental HD is blank
If it's fairly new you should still be able to knock on their support door?
Well, HSMs were bought with the AMDs direct from Compuware as part of a bundle, so we've never had any dealiings with Thales.
As it's running 11.5, you can probably guess it's not new either!
I'm really after a ballpark figure - 100, 1000 etc as we need to do a tactical 'Add these new servers' before we can finally upgrade to latest DCRUM version! (A project kicking off as I type)
I want to be reasonably confident that we can accomodate the extra servers which all have SSL

Hi
There is of course a limit since the keys are stored but it differs from model to model.
You can check your specific model over at https://www.thales-esecurity.com/
