And extra cells block storage cells, which are kind of a barrel as well =)
There is one texture. There is no way to texture all 9 JABBA barrels like that because they use a single texture.

Forget weeks... You'll never get the chests! Greg has trolled you with a new recipe meanwhile
(disclosure: GT player )That's when I get ore processing done...
I minetweaked the recipe so it's 8 dirt in a circle.maybe we are being to generous I'd say 8 weeks.
I remember there were a list of recipes in Gregtech that did not show up in NEI and made the game very easy. It was a joke and in only one version.Forget weeks... You'll never get the chests! Greg has trolled you with a new recipe meanwhile
Aaaand related to barrels, look what's coming in TE!
More details from KingLemming himself:

I hope that instead of 10k 40k etc as the names they keep the hardened, reinforced, resonant nomenclature (maybe with the actual storage size somewhere in the tooltip
It'd only make sense from the established nomenclature of the chests and tanks. Also they currently only appear to show current amount, not also max amount when in your inventory:
There is one more benefit that FZ barrels have over Jabba barrels. Comparator compatibility.
The Jabba redstone upgrade only works when the barrel is full, but a comparator on an FZ barrel can detect if there is even one item in it. I just came up with a small use for this so while it is not groundbreaking or anything, it is moderately handy, and another reason why both could co-exist in a modpack and be used for different things.

Also, FZ barrels can be pushed with a knockback sword after drinking a strength potion ( in survival mode). I wonder if someone made a minigame out of this already.

Jabba is OK, but upgrades system is bothersome. I can't just craft a stack of megabarrels and plop them where I need them and as much as I need, I have to craft several types of upgrades that stack only by 16 and add them one by one. Not TOO hard, but makes me squint each time I had to do something JABBA-related.
I know what you mean, but I guess its the price you pay for the convenience.
Permit me to go a bit meta here ladies and gentlemen.
Isn't it funny, that a simple block designed to keep at base, a little over a double chest's worth of a single type of material would spark so much creativity from devs like Neptunepink, Prof Mobius and others, and interest from the community. Here we have a 5 page thread about barrels. Just thought that was a noteworthy thing is all.
