What is Refined Storage?
This pack includes Refined Storage, running version 2.0.0-beta.2 of the NeoForge build.[1]
Unverified No sources were available describing what Refined Storage does, who it's aimed at, or where it fits in this pack's progression, so those details are left out here.
How do you get started with Refined Storage?
5 parts
Same as in the All the Mods 10 4.10 guide
Refined Storage is built around one network: a power source, cables, and devices hanging off it. Nearly every recipe you will craft early on leans on Quartz Enriched Iron, so that is where you start.[2][3]
First: get Quartz Enriched Iron
Quartz Enriched Iron is used in the recipe for your first storage part, for storage disks and for the Autocrafter. This pack has a changed recipe that turns Quartz Enriched Iron Essence into the ingot, shown below.[2]

This recipe is changed by the pack.
Next: build the network backbone
Controllers provide the network with energy, and Cable connects devices to each other. You can also place devices directly against each other. Cable is made with Quartz Enriched Copper rather than the iron version.[2][3]

Then: add a Grid and storage
A Grid lets you interact with your storage, and a Disk Drive holds your storage disks. A disk only does something once it sits in a Disk Drive. Fluids work the same way with Fluid Storage Disks.[3]
A disk starts as a storage part. The 1k part is the entry point because it does not need an earlier part.[2]

After that: grow your capacity
Bigger parts are built from the previous tier. The 4k Storage Part starts from a 1k part and a Basic Processor. The 16k and 64k parts continue the chain with an Improved Processor and an Advanced Processor respectively. Fluid parts follow the same idea, from 64B up to 4096B.[2]

The next step up from the 1k part.
Finally: look ahead to autocrafting
Once storage is sorted, the next goal is an Autocrafter. It automates crafting using patterns created in a Pattern Grid. It is a more expensive craft, so save it for later.[2][3]

How does Refined Storage work?
8 parts
Refined Storage is all about building one storage network out of many separate devices. You link devices with Cable, or you place them directly against each other, and everything connected becomes part of the same network.[4]
Powering the network
Every network needs energy, and Controllers provide it. You can use one Controller or several in the same network. A Controller also has a redstone mode. While the Controller is inactive, the network can't use it as an energy source, so you can shut a network down with a redstone signal.[4]
Connecting and branching
- Cable is the basic way to connect devices, but devices placed against each other connect too.[4]
- A Relay lets you switch entire sections of your network on or off and create new branches.[4]
- A Network Transmitter, Network Receiver and Network Card let you add components to your network without running cables to them.[4]
Storing items and fluids
The core of your storage is the Disk Drive. It holds your storage disks, and you place Storage Disks in it for items and Fluid Storage Disks for fluids. Disks come in several sizes, such as 1k Storage Disk and 16k Storage Disk for items, and 256B Fluid Storage Disk, 1024B Fluid Storage Disk and 4096B Fluid Storage Disk for fluids.[4][5]
Each disk is built around a storage part of the matching size, like 1k Storage Part or 256B Fluid Storage Part. Bigger parts are crafted from smaller ones, so you work your way up the tiers. The same parts also go into standalone storage blocks, such as 1k Storage Block and 1024B Fluid Storage Block.[5]

Higher tiers are built from the tier below
Every disk has two recipes in this pack. You can craft a disk directly, or you can build it from its storage part and a Storage Housing. The second option is handy if you already have spare housings.[5]

Recipe id: refinedstorage:1k_storage_disk_from_storage_housing
Disk from a Storage Housing
You don't have to keep everything on disks. An External Storage connects a block like a chest to the network, and the network then uses that block's contents as storage.[4]
Storages have an access mode that controls what the network can do with them:[4]
- Insert and extract: the network can both put resources into this storage and take them out.[4]
- Insert only: the network can only put resources into this storage, but the contents still show up in a Grid.[4]
- Extract only: the network can only take resources out of this storage.[4]
A Disk Interface moves resources between the network and storage disks. In one transfer mode it empties disks into the network, and in the other it fills disks from the network. Its filters work in allowlist or blocklist mode, so you can choose exactly which resources get moved.[4]
If you want to use your disks away from a network, craft a Portable Grid. It gives you access to a disk's contents without needing a storage network at all.[4]
Quartz Enriched Iron in this pack
Nearly every storage recipe needs Quartz Enriched Iron. In this pack you have an extra way to get it: a Mystical Agriculture recipe that turns quartz enriched iron essence into the ingot.[5]

Viewing your storage
A Grid is your main window into the network. From it you can see, insert and extract everything the network stores. You can upgrade a Grid to a Crafting Grid, which adds crafting to the same screen. For wireless access to your resources, use a Wireless Grid.[4]
- Type @ in the search box to filter for resources from a specific mod.[4]
- Type $ to filter for resources with a specific tag.[4]
- Type # to filter for resources with a specific tooltip.[4]
If you only care about one resource, a Storage Monitor is a lighter option. It lets you view, insert or extract resources in the network straight from the block.[4]
Moving resources in and out
- Importer: pulls resources from a target inventory into the network. Its filters work in allowlist or blocklist mode.[4]
- Exporter: pushes the resources set in its filters out of the network.[4]
- Interface: exports and imports items at the same time.[4]
- Constructor: places blocks from the network into the world, based on its filter.[4]
- Destructor: breaks blocks in the world and puts them into the network. Its filters decide which blocks it may or may not break, in allowlist or blocklist mode.[4]
- Detector: uses redstone to check the amount of a resource stored in the network.[4]
Many filters have a fuzzy mode. With fuzzy mode off, a filter has to match exactly. With it on, the filter matches while ignoring components, so the same item with different data still counts. Crafted Upgrades improve various devices too.[4]
Autocrafting
Autocrafting runs on patterns. You create them in a Pattern Grid and put them in an Autocrafter. With a pattern's fuzzy mode on, its inputs can use alternatives instead of matching exactly.[4]
Processing patterns are for machines. The input slots list the resources that get taken from the network and inserted into the target inventory. The output slots list the resources that must come back to the network before the task counts as successful.[4]
Once you have many Autocrafters, an Autocrafter Manager lets you manage all your patterns in one place. Only Autocrafters set to be visible appear in it. You can search by pattern inputs, pattern outputs, autocrafter names or all three. You can also filter the view to show every Autocrafter, only visible ones, or only ones that aren't full yet.[4]
Before you start a craft, the preview screen has a max button. It fills in the most of that resource you can craft right now without starting the task. You can also ask for a notification when the task finishes. To keep an eye on running tasks, use an Autocrafting Monitor, or a Wireless Autocrafting Monitor to check them from anywhere.[4]
For fully automatic production, put an Autocrafting Upgrade in an Interface, Exporter or Constructor. That device will then autocraft resources on demand when it needs them.[4]

How do you progress through Refined Storage?
5 parts
Same as in the All the Mods 10 4.10 guide
Refined Storage progression in this pack is a ladder of parts, and the key material at every rung is Quartz Enriched Iron. The storage parts, disks, blocks and autocrafting items below all use it. Cables use Quartz Enriched Copper instead.[2]
Unverified I couldn't find any quests in this pack that involve Refined Storage, so there is no quest-guided path. The tiers below follow the in-pack recipes instead.
Start here: Quartz Enriched Iron
The pack changed how you can get Quartz Enriched Iron: there is a pack recipe that makes it from its Mystical Agriculture essence. Here is the exact in-pack recipe.[2]
Crafting Shaped
8 × Quartz Enriched Iron Essence
Recipe id: mysticalagriculture:essence/refinedstorage/quartz_enriched_iron_ingot

Cables
The Cable is the backbone you build your network on.[2]

Item storage tiers
Item storage goes 1k, 4k, 16k, then 64k. The first part is crafted from base materials, and each later part upgrades the one before it. The processor you need goes up with the tier.[2]
- 1k Storage Part: the entry tier. It needs no earlier part and no processor.[2]
- 4k Storage Part: upgrades the 1k part and needs a Basic Processor.[2]
- 16k Storage Part: upgrades the 4k part and needs an Improved Processor.[2]
- 64k Storage Part: upgrades the 16k part and needs an Advanced Processor.[2]
Crafting Shaped

Recipe id: refinedstorage:4k_storage_part
A typical upgrade step: the previous part plus the next processor tier.
Every part can become a portable disk or a placeable block. A disk can be crafted with glass, or by combining the part with a Storage Housing. A block adds a Machine Casing. Here are the 1k versions.[2]
- 1k Storage Disk has a shaped recipe and a shapeless one that uses a Storage Housing.[2]
- 1k Storage Block is the block form of the same part.[2]
Fluid storage tiers
Fluid storage follows the same pattern with 64B, 256B, 1024B and 4096B parts. The processor tiers match the item ladder, and each part recipe also uses an empty bucket.[2]
- 64B Fluid Storage Part: the entry tier.[2]
- 256B Fluid Storage Part: upgrades the 64B part with a Basic Processor.[2]
- 1024B Fluid Storage Part: upgrades the 256B part with an Improved Processor.[2]
- 4096B Fluid Storage Part: upgrades the 1024B part with an Advanced Processor.[2]

Recipe id: refinedstorage:64b_fluid_storage_part
Autocrafting
Autocrafting is the top of the ladder. The Autocrafter needs an Advanced Processor, plus both a Construction Core and a Destruction Core.[2]
Crafting Shaped
Recipe id: refinedstorage:autocrafter
- Autocrafter Manager: needs an Advanced Processor and an autocrafter.[2]
- Autocrafting Monitor: needs an Improved Processor and a Pattern.[2]
- Autocrafting Upgrade: an upgrade built from the base Upgrade item and a Construction Core.[2]
How does Refined Storage work with other mods?
4 parts
Refined Storage is the foundation for several storage add-ons in this pack. Their recipes use Refined Storage parts like the Advanced Processor, Improved Processor and Quartz Enriched Iron, so once your processor production is running you can move on to bigger disks and higher-tier cables.[5]
Elite and Ultra cable tiers
The Constructor, Destructor, Importer and Exporter each have Elite and Ultra versions. Each Elite version is crafted from the matching Refined Storage device, and each Ultra version is crafted from the matching Elite one. That gives you Elite Constructor, Elite Destructor, Elite Importer, Elite Exporter, then Ultra Constructor, Ultra Destructor, Ultra Importer and Ultra Exporter.[5]

Bigger storage parts, disks and blocks
The larger item storage parts are an upgrade chain that starts with Refined Storage's own 64k Storage Part, which goes into the 256k Storage Part. Each part after that is made from the previous size. Fluid parts work the same way, starting from the 4096B Fluid Storage Part to make the 16384B Fluid Storage Part.[5]
At the top end, the 262m Storage Part, 1048m Storage Part and 1048kB Fluid Storage Part need a Withering Processor. Its raw form is crafted with a Processor Binding, and the pack changed that recipe.[5]

To turn parts into storage blocks you need an Advanced Machine Casing, which is built from Refined Storage's Machine Casing, Construction Core and Destruction Core. There is also an Advanced Storage Housing crafted from Refined Storage processors.[5]

Recipe id: extradisks:advanced_machine_casing
Mekanism chemical storage
Chemical storage ties in Mekanism too. The 65536B Chemical Storage Part is made from the 8192B Chemical Storage Part, and the bigger chemical parts all use Atomic Alloy and osmium ingots. The chemical disks also need osmium.[5]

Extra Storage disks, exporter and importer
A second set of large disks, such as the 256k Storage Disk and 1048576b Fluid Storage Disk, is crafted around Refined Storage parts and Quartz Enriched Iron. The pack changed all of these disk recipes.[5]

Unverified Both sets of disks accept any storage part with the matching size tag, so parts from one add-on might work in the other's disk recipes. This has not been confirmed in-game.
What changed in Refined Storage between versions?
Refined Storage landed in All the Mods 10 with release 2.43, when the pack changelog lists it as added at version 2.0.0-beta.2.[6]
In All the Mods 10 2.44, the pack still ships Refined Storage 2.0.0-beta.2, the NeoForge build of the mod. So the version you're playing with in 2.44 is the same one that arrived in 2.43, and no pack-side update to the mod shows up between those two releases.[1][6]
Unverified The specific changes, fixes and new features inside Refined Storage 2.0.0-beta.2 itself couldn't be confirmed, because the mod's own changelog for this jar isn't available here.
