As they only stack of 1, it is recommended to use [[Transport belt|belts]] as buffers rather than using [[cargo bay]]s.
As asteroid chunks stack size is only 1, [[Transport belt|belts]] can hold more chunks per tile (8) than [[cargo bay]]s.

Oxide asteroid chunk is a resource gathered by asteroid collectors and processed in crushers. It is the main source for ice, used to make thruster oxidizer, and calcite. It is dropped from oxide asteroids, which are found in trace amounts near the first 4 planets but is incredibly abundant when traveling to Aquilo. It can also be used in asteroid reprocessing.

As asteroid chunks stack size is only 1, belts can hold more chunks per tile (8) than cargo bays.
