There is pretty much just one right now, the FX Pak Pro (formally called the SD2SNES). There are no other competing flashdrives. There used to be the Everdrive for SNES, but it was so behind the SD2SNES that Krizz stopped even bothering trying to sell/update it and just started to stock SD2SNES carts.
Eventually it was renamed to the FX Pak because of a lawsuit, not from Nintendo mind you, but from the people who run the SD card business sending a C&D for having "SD" in the name. It was later replaced with the FX Pak Pro that used a stronger FPGA chip, I think a better CPU too but I don't recall. I remember the dev was planning to use the additional hardware in the Pro to add Super Gameboy support but I don't think he ever did.
Not even the FX Pak Pro can run every SNES game though, it still does not support the SPC7110, ST-011 and ST-018 (Though I highly doubt anyone will care about those last two) and the Sufami Turbo adapter, pretty much every other chip is supported. The only other ones on the market are cheap Chinese clones of the SD2SNES/FXPak which can vary significantly in what chips they support. Many of the cheapest ones don't support a large amount of enhancement chips.
