PDA modules look like memory cards (despite this, they’re colloquially known as “flash drives”). They are mainly needed for adding crafting recipes to your PDA (without them, you won’t be able to interact with the equipment used to craft various items). This guide lists all the existing PDA modules in the game, what they are needed for, and where you can get them:
