After producing over 34 different batches of KGB Freespray ship schematics I think it is about time that I share with you the secret of obtaining the disks in the quickest amount of time. If you follow the steps below you will not go wrong. I have been contemplating selling this solution on eBay but in the end, I just feel compelled to share this with you lovely people.
1) Loot: The very basis of good success is to always use SosoSub components. This will increase your 'spray success to roughly 10 drops per 100 RE's.
2) The longer your RE session, the better the results. After a continous bout of over 75 hours Reverse Engineering I noticed that my disks were appearing at a rate of 45 drops per 100 RE's.
3) Carry out all your work at the back of the cantina on Coronet. You know, where the rebel missions are dealt out.
4) Delete the first disk you obtain that session. This tricks the random generator into giving you an increased success rate. Obviously the Dev's wrote this bit in to help people who delete expensive and rare loot.
5) Thursdays are the best drop days. Public holidays are good too.
6) If possible, try to wear the Exquisite dancers leotard while crafting. If you are male this will not be possible and you will have to try and entice a dancer to the back of the cantina. Twi'leks are best.
7) All Sososub loot obtained from combat using a YT Firespray will automatically give you a disc drop. I can't believe nobody noticed this sooner.
8) I forgot to mention in point 4, ONLY delete the disk if it is marked 5/8.
9) Rebel/Imperial orders can me used as replacements for hard to find disks. For example, if you need disk 4/8 you can replace this with Rebel Order 4/4. If you need disk 8/8, two Rebel orders 4/4 will do. It's that easy.
10) Regarding point 4. I think it's best not to delete the disks actually. It doesn't seem to do any good.
11) KFC disks can be reproduced in a factory.
Can someone make this a sticky?

Dang it. I really wish I read post 10 before I read post 8 and that I read post 8 before post 1 because I deleted disk 3/8. Now I will have to start all over and get me some more Sorosub space lootwith a Firespray so I can sit in the back of the cantina while drinking 12 redbulls so I can actively stay awake for the next 80 hours with my 10,000 level 1 Sorosub loot ship parts. Man, if I had only made a female twil'ek instead of a male Ithorian, then I could have worn the Exotic Dancer Leotard loot drop,and could have been totally set for Thursdays RE marathone tomarrow. Hmmm..... think I could call up G. W. and get him to make tomarrowa national holiday and name it Reverse Engineering Day? Now where did I put my factory blueprint? Probably still in my home under all the other space loot I don't need for the disks. Crap!

Thats good, I wonder how many people actually started doing this without reading the rest of the posts to realize it was a joke. I'm thinking of logging on and going to the coronet cantina just to see how many people are hanging out in the back with a dancer.

I originally 1-starred this post but then figured "what the heck?" and RE'd it. It came out a 5-star instead and I got piece 7 of 8.

Possible work-around here. I am a male Twi'lek I found that if I equipped a pair of melons I could then wear the exotic leotard!!

Heavy emphasis on the word "possible" right? I mean they stopped giving out 5 melons to new characters so now there's only 1. I'm guessing a guy might put on the leotard with only one melon but then it would look weird.

Depends on where you put the melon
