Infinity also supports the Dev2 mode you're looking for - and with a 'hacked' firmware which can easily be found, Crystal also plays backups. Infinity does also when flashed with a firmware from the Matrix teams website. DMS4 doesn't support backups out-of-the-box either. You need a 'Toxic' firmware (which is essentially the same as a hacked BIOS on the Crystal - so what you've heard isn't true).

There are several reasons for the Infinity and Crystal being the better chips...

1. Reliability - Infinity and CC are both hugely more reliable than DMS4 chips. They don't suffer from Ground Bounce issues, there are many reports of DMS chips being DOA and have been shipped from the factory bad flashed on far too many occasions. This is not good business practise.

2. Support - Infinity and CC are developed by teams which have an ethical stance towards their customers. If you have any issues, these teams have dedicated support personel who will answer your queries in a timely fashion - such things cannot be said of the DMS team who like to take your money and hide.

3. Software - Updates for the Infinity and CC come around in regular intervals and code is constantly updated and optimised. These chips are also easy to use, and in terms of the CC, the chip is open-source so many alternative and hacked firmwares can be found and used as deemed fit by the end user.

4. Price - The DMS4 is by FAR the most expensive chip in the market. Quite frankly, the game has moved on and there are better chips out there for a lot less cash.

After all, it's your choice - but if it were me I'd forget the DMS...
