Infinity Drives FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do I make an Infinity Drive?
Craft an Infinity Drive using the recipe shown in your mod's crafting guide, then place it in the Infinity Drive block's GUI. Each drive stores one specific resource type (water, lava, or cobblestone) infinitely.
Can I use Infinity Drives with Applied Energistics 2?
Yes. Infinity Drives show as max integer storage in AE2 systems and are never consumed, letting you treat them as infinite resource sources within your ME network.
Do Infinity Drives work with Refined Storage?
Yes, Infinity Drives integrate with Refined Storage the same way they do with AE2, displaying as maximum integer capacity and providing infinite access to their stored resource.
Can I make custom Infinity Drives for other materials?
Yes, use KubeJS scripting to create custom drives for any resource you want. The mod's documentation includes examples for defining new drive types and their behaviors.
Do Infinity Drives work with item and fluid routers?
Yes. Infinity Drives support mods using ItemHandlers and FluidHandlers (like BBL Routers), so they integrate with most modern piping and automation systems.
What happens if I try to put two different resources in one drive?
Each Infinity Drive slot holds only one resource type. If you try to insert a different resource, it won't be accepted—place a new drive in an empty slot instead.
Can I extract from an Infinity Drive faster than normal?
Extraction speed depends on your piping and automation setup, not the drive itself. The drive provides infinite supply, so you won't run out—your system's throughput is the only limit.
Do Infinity Drives cause lag or performance issues?
Infinity Drives are designed to be lightweight. Performance impact comes from your automation setup and how frequently resources are extracted, not from the drives themselves.
Can I move or break an Infinity Drive block without losing my drives?
Breaking the Infinity Drive block will drop it as an item. The drives stored inside should be preserved, but check your mod version's documentation to confirm behavior in your setup.
Why isn't my Infinity Drive showing up in my storage system?
Make sure the drive is placed in the Infinity Drive block's GUI and that your piping is connected to the block itself, not just nearby. Check that your mod version supports the storage mod you're using.
