Try connecting your Sound Module to your Computer via the USB port. (directly, not via an external interface).
Fire up SD3, Open the Audio Midi settings.
Select the TD30 as your midi device (make sure you’ve enabled midi usb in your TD30 module settings),
AND select the TD30 as your audio (ASIO) device.

How were you connecting the TD-30 module to control SD3 previously?

Yeah it should be way higher 127 to be exact, did you try adjust the Trig Sens on the pad in the module, Its just a tweak away, and sometimes needed.
Don’t expect that the Roland will convey the same velocity to an outside engine as it does with its own. Set some velocities up to 12-18 to get some oomph.  

Yes, exactly. To get suitable MIDI from the brain of our Roland TD-30, we had to make adjustments in its setup,
from either/both the Roland pads or from Roland Triggers sent from our DW acoustic kit.

The USB2 connection could be the “bottleneck”, slowing up the back-and-forth communication.
I seem to recall that USB2 is not simultaneous bi-directional communication.
I do not think that it can communicate back-and-forth between your interface and your communication simultaneously,
like Firewire & Thunderbolt communication protocols do.

You can change the Downloads folder in Product Manager as John suggested above.

Tip #1. The drive must be connected before opening Product Manager.
Tip #2. I believe that you probably have to cancel any existing, incomplete downloads before attempting to change the download location.

Probably forgetting something and some other tips to changing the download location may be necessary.
That’s all that I can recall from my own experience at the moment.

So, now I am downloading the Superior Drummer 3 and all the sounds.
I want to move all my sound files and midi libraries to an external hard drive instead of filling up my local drive.
What is the best way to do this? Should I move the folders and just make an alias of them or is there a better way?
I think I did something similar years ago, but I forgot what I did. Would be nice to have everything on the same external drive.

Both, pieces I added in my DAW and added hits here and there.

As Henrik has said, “it doesn’t matter where you have the MIDI…“
if EZD2 is the instrument that is playing the MDI editted & hosted in your DAW
then the multi-output routing configured in the EZD2 mixer will apply.

Obviously, the kit pieces & MIDI not played by an instance of EZD2 will not be routed through the EZD2 mixer,
but you could bus the multiple EZD2 outputs and those ‘extra’ kit pieces played
by another instrument to a shared AUX to mix them blended.

Please clarify,

@Ibex said:
… because those parts are not in EZD2.

By ‘parts’, do you mean additional kit pieces not played by EZD2,
or do you mean MIDI ‘hits’ that you’ve added?

If you press REC in SD3 and play it in your host so that it gets recorded,
much like you would have done in SD2, then it should work.

The E-drum MIDI transform works on incoming MIDI. The MIDI track
in SD3, sort of, sits inside of it. If you import your MIDI directly into
the track in SD3 it doesn’t get applied.  

SD3 is so cool.
Just saying.

Thanks.

I have HP computer with Windows 10 and Intel core i5-6400 2,70 ghz. processor. I download demo of ez drummer 2 and had error trying to unzip. is my computer powerful enough?  

In a word…
Probably.

The real question is probably whether or not you have enough disk space to unzip the download.
What error are you getting?
Maybe the download was corrupted or incomplete.
Perhaps you could delete the 1st download and try again.
