List of Complete Main Storages

This page is a complete index of published storage systems from the Storage Catalog and Storage Tech Discord, focused on helping users compare designs and pick what to build.

Notes / FAQ

  • If you are a complete beginner, start from smaller MIS systems like Compact Categorizer, YAMIS, or J-MIS.
  • Never put renamed blocker items used during filter setup into your normal input.
  • Avoid unloading any storage while it is actively sorting unless chunkloading is correctly configured.
  • Use litematica verifier and triple-check inventory filters before debugging behavior.
  • Many designs require chunk alignment; use F3+G while building.
  • Speed is not the only metric. Estimate your real input volume per project before choosing.
  • Avoid gameplay-changing shulker stacking methods that can break systems.
  • If something appears wrong, test in a world download first and then ask specific questions with screenshots.
