EnderDrives
by STS15
EnderDrives lets a player store items in a digital drive linked by frequency, so the same shared contents can be reached from another base, dimension or AE2 network.
What it does
Drives are linked by a frequency set on each one. Drives that share a frequency expose the same contents, no matter who crafted them, and the storage can be synchronized across an AE2 system, another dimension or another player's system. Each drive type has a capacity limit that the author notes can be exceeded with caution, and the mod is tested with up to 250,000 types in a system.
Each drive can be set to Bidirectional, which is the default and behaves like a normal disk drive, or to Input only, which lets automations insert items but not remove them, or Output only, which lets automations pull items without ever inserting. Team drives are accessible to members of an FTB Team who craft a drive set to the team frequency, and the data stays tied to the owner's UUID even if the team disbands.
The mod depends on Applied Energistics 2, and it is published for NeoForge only. Its items are stored with full data component NBT so identification stays accurate. Storage at large scales uses a purpose-built database called EnderDB, which handles rotating write-ahead logging, batch commits, CRC32 checksums and in-memory caching. Installation covers the server and each player's game.
Key features
Frequency-linked drives
Drives joined by a shared frequency present the same items, which keeps remote storage consistent.
Drive access modes
Bidirectional, Input only and Output only settings control whether players and automations can insert or remove items.
Team storage
Members of an FTB Team can craft drives on the team frequency and share one inventory.
Full NBT item tracking
Each stored item is indexed by frequency, scope, full NBT and count, so items with different data stay distinct.
Background data handling
Writes run on a dedicated background thread with batch commits and checksums, aimed at large storage volumes.

What the author says
These drives link together based on the frequency set for each drive. All drives with the same frequency and privacy share the same contents, regardless of who crafted them. Whether in your AE2 system, another dimension, or on another player’s system, the contents are globally synchronized. EnderDrives is a mod that…
