if 3 is the fastest why is the ultra 2 the slowest?

you can press Y to change the save type1) You don't have to. When you format as AKFS, it doesn't actually format your cart, just creates a "virtual file system". You can't see any difference under windows, because windows reads the FAT ("file allocation table", a sort of list of all the files on the card, their sizes, etc.) and the acekard manager doesn't use the FAT. It writes directly on the cart. So, no you don't have to format your card. And even when you do format it, Windows doesn't notice the difference.
2) It has nothing to do with your storage media. You will always have to "evaluate the order of ROM..."
3) This seems rather random. It happens to me almost every time I try do delete a "free space" (but why would you do that...) but deleting roms seems to work.
4) I think using the AKFS is independent of the actual file system used by your card. The acekard manager just writes directly to the card, and doesn't modify the FAT.
5) As far as I know, if you choose the wrong save type, you have to put the microSD card back in your card reader, open the acekard manager, delete the .st file associated to the rom (romname.st) and when you will try to boot the rom the next time, it will ask you to enter a save type again.
M3 Manager works well enough under WINE for a friend to use it. Probably the G6 client works too.To answer the question asked a few posts before:
The acekard manager does not function properly under Linux using Wine. The main window does show up, but it's all messed up. And the software does not detect the microSD card at all, no matter what I tried.
Can't really blame them though, I doubt any other manager (M3, SC, ...) is supported by Wine.
Here is an example of the problems generated by their proprietary file system:
Edit: another example.
SC Software works here with Wine, tooTo answer the question asked a few posts before:

What would have been nic is a Java client: it would have been multi-platform from the start.
Who cares about supporting clean R0Ms, if I still have to use a manager for moving them to the Card?It doesn't seem a great card.
The strange file system seems like "hey-see-we-don't-use-any-patch", but it is just like patching roms as the old days.
Read, if the acekard team is up front about the information and what they've said is correct, then it is supporting clean roms. The "patching" magic is just interfacing with a new file system of AKFS. Same thing happens when you copy information from FAT16 to NTFS in windows, except it's natively supported.
Still.. if you take into account the end of mem card storage problem and the download and play hiccup,.. it would seem that this is the only cart that is truely 100% comptable at this moment in time.
Not bad if the prices are kept in the budget range.

I'm pretty sure that the fact that the AceKard is 100% compatible and the empty memory space issue go hand in hand. That's the way the OS works, and it would probably require a huge rewrite of the code to have it not create the empty spaces.
Have fun, AceKard buyers.

That's not all... The FS is buggy and I can't drag&drop files.

well exactly the point... the few of us in the know who can get vania2(POR) and ultimate spiderman running on slower setups will no longer be exclusive since the software seems to dictate the solution for end-users who are not to tech savvy... savvy
No one else here think that the fact is does indeed have 100% compatabilty a decent enough + point ?? be fair no other cart can claim this ...... even the rocket reviewed (9.5!! 9.5!!) ds-x can't manage that
