Matrix Cubes Assembly Room Locaitons
If you are playing as Empire, you will have to go to Dromund Kass’ Ancient Assembly Chamber and if you are playing as Republic then you will have to visit Coruscant’s Lost Assembly Vault, the West room in the Jedi Temple is the place you need to visit to craft these cubes.

How To Power Matrix Cube
You will need a Reconfigured Disassemebler core on Tatooine to power the cube. You can carry only one cube at a time. You can’t create another one till you have one equipped with you.

Where To Store Matrix Cubes
You can store them in your cargo hold and then build new ones. You can build up to 4 of the matrix cubes after you have found all the shards.
