Computers natively operate in binary. This includes flash chips. They may represent decimal values to end users, but that has no bearing on their native functionality.

Q means quad, so 4 bits, S means single so 1 bit per cell and MLC is multi which is just mostly used to mean DUAL level cell, so there's 2 bits per cell.

This is to show a higher number for example in decimal a kilo is 1000 whereas in binary it is 1024. This is just a marketimg gimmick. Our computers and phones, on the other hand, detect using the binary system. So your 128gb phone is never really binary-128gb but decimal-128gb which is a little less.
Interesting todays 1TB SSD cards or disk cost as much as 64 Megabytes cards 30 years ago.

It represents a shift from the prefix “giga” or billion with the prefix “tera” or trillion. Terabits are often contrasted with terabytes, which is a term for 1 trillion bytes, each of which is made up of eight individual bits."
So whilst BINARY would have 128 Gb in order to surpass 1 trillion. 1TB = 125Gb
There are many sites that give a better description than I have
Internet Nomad, 13 Sep 2024Its to low, we need 8Tb/1TB in single chip to put prices down radically.That's basically 8x more than what Samsung just started mass producing.
Will we see this density within this decade? I doubt that.
Slight nitpick: 1 terabit is 128 gigabytes, not 125. Flash chips use base 2 bytes, not the base 10 hard drives use. An end user device might show 1000GB, but the hardware will be 1024GB, and the extra 24 GB go to overprovisioning.

>Now they are upgrading that to a quad-level cell (QLC) solution
QLC is usually considered a downgrade to TLC, because speeds are slower when the cache is used up and because it has a much shorter lifespan. Upside is that it is cheaper. I haven’t used QLC so I can’t attest to the longevity disadvantage. Maybe there are sources who tested it.
