Storage blocks in Minecraft
Minecraft players have access to a handful of storage blocks.
The single chest and large chest are the most widely used storage blocks in the game. The single chest has a total of 27 inventory slots, while the large chest has 54.
The barrel is a great storage option that functions exactly like a chest. However, it does not require an air block to be accessed.
The shulker box is the most useful storage block in the game, but it is also the hardest to acquire. This storage block acts as a portable chest, as it holds items inside even when broken.
The ender chest is the most unique storage block. Even if two ender chests are placed in different locations, the items will be accessible from both chests.
