My friend has one hell of a complicated setup using Applied Energetics 2, where he can throw everything from what was in his chests onto hard drives, and be able to access them via terminals, and a wireless terminal.
Since I don't have the patience to do all of that complicated, tedious work (plus know where to have a room just to store AE2),.. I still would like a similar setup. Yet I don't have need for the auto crafting.

I just want to be able to remotely access all of my chests via Ender Chests and Pouches, take what I need, and just craft without having to go down to manually get my stuff. And I also want it compatible with my auto-smelting/sorting system.
Though I can already, yet I would require a pouch for each chest. And the fact an Ender Chest can only hold so much... well, it would be really tough.
Is there a way to do this without using AE2? Like something that I can make with EnderIO? Hopefully have something that can read the data off of an Existing Item Filter(the snapshot) and use this.

We both have the Direwolf20 pack, version 1.3.1.
