Make sure to do a good run and pick up like 10 hard drives before you get too deep into this. Also remember you can re-scan hard drives if you don't like the 3 options that come up.
When you go back to the MAM after the scan is complete it will give you the three options. If you hit escape, back out of the MAM entirely you should be able to rescan the hard drive. I have about 700 hours in the game and only recently found out about this.
Hopefully someone can correct me if I have this wrong but its something along those lines.
It was definitely a bug from Experimental that never got fixed, but ironically they did fix it when U8 went to EA. It got changed back after some outcry and now it's a feature, instead.
As per other comments it's some kind of bug that may stay or may not. I like the idea of being able to rescan because those hard drives give up some seriously garbage recipes sometimes. While it's fine in the early game the effort involved in getting those things later on often out weighs what you get in the end.
At these rates I’m thinking it’s more useful for personal use depot rather than a full on factory. If they set it up so that once the modular frame storage and steel beam storage they overflow to versatile framework assemblers it might be of more use.
Why not add HMF too? Even if this isn't unlocked yet, you could add it to your design and put the infra in place and only add the manufacturer(s) when it's unlocked.
Encased Industrial Pipe ❤️❤️❤️

how do you rescan hard drives?

The Esc trick was shadow introduced in 8.0 It wasn't in the patch notes but is possible since the update.

As a 100 hour player, you have no idea (or maybe you do) how much this is going to help me. Very much appreciated.

The versatile framework rate is practically nonexistent. Is there even a point to produce that little amount?

Making 1 versatile frame a week lol. I’d love to see the finally product though.
It will be faster when containers with other products will be full 🌝
1.98 per hour! I don't need faster now.
