So, as already said i bought a black pseudo cart that was having saves, ram expansion, imports and backups. Unfortunately that damn selled cancelled the order and refunded me cause of adresses errors (man serously what the f@ck)

Now i need to buy another cart but i am quite confused cause there are too many of them. I read there is a 4 in 1 direct card and a multireader 4 in 1 card, and both should have saves, so what's the differences between these two?

Considering i do want saves to the cart, imports and backups would these carts be what i need?

Or in alternative, does anyone knows a place where i can buy a good one?

I think the difference is some have the memory card built in with KAI and others don't. They both look good to me. I think they both have all the features you need.

ok but, i heard somewhere one let you save to the cart and one to the internal memory, i guess that's the multireader one (the one with save to cart)?

I think some have a switch to go into Memorycard mode only, then you can directly save games to it. Not all games let you save to the cart. Some games you have to transfer from internal.

i'll thank you for your help

at the end i bought this one, which should be what i need (and it's black of course)

Yes! Looks good, Its got the 4 marks on the back of the cart showing it does all 4 functions.

Another thing to keep in mind, sometimes these carts need some foil tape or tinfoil added to stop EMI. https://ppcenter.webou.net/pskai/compat/#diy_shield
I have the older 3-in-1 And I had to do it on mine.

Oh good to know, thank you

Out of curiosity, if you have a 3 in 1, where do you save?to the internal memory?

Yeah my cart is lame, new one would be a nice upgrade.
