The "Final Cartridge 3" is a cartridge, which can be operated on the Expansion port of the C64. It provides over 60 new functions to the C64-user (e.g. BASIC-Extension, Fastloader and -saver for the 1541 with an acceleration factor of 10, Freezer, Monitor).
On 2008-05-02 sd2iec 0.7 firmware release started supporting the Final Cartridge 3 fastloader - since then they work together really well. FC3 is one of the best choices to run along with sd2iec, some other are JffyDOS or Epyx Fastload cartridge.
Some more detailed information about FC3 can be found here:
