Obtaining

Upon reaching level 3 with ICA, the ICA Market will allow you to buy Common Data Drives. You can also find any rarity of Data Drive out in Fortuna III, typically near an Uplink.

Mechanics

Data Drives come in 5 different levels of rarity: Common → Uncommon → Rare → Epic → Legendary

Upgrading

Buy a Data Drive from the ICA Store for 300 Krypto Marks. Data Drives can also be found as loot on Fortuna III.
Take the Data Drive to Fortuna III by placing it in a backpack.
Travel to any location that has an Uplink,
Find the Terminal and insert the Data Drive into the socket. Then start the download at the terminal screen.
Repeat the process until the desired Data Drive rarity is obtained.

The Uplink tower will show the rarity that the Data Drive is upgrading to with a coloured light corresponding to the rarity. The Uplink tower will emit a loud noise as well, that will attract the attention of other Prospectors and Creatures.
