Abstract
A memory system includes a memory device including a plurality of memory blocks, each memory block including memory cells capable of storing multi-bit data, and a controller configured to allocate the plurality of memory blocks for plural zoned namespaces input from an external device and access a memory block allocated for one of the plural zoned namespaces which is input along with a data input/output request. In response to a first request input from the external device, the controller adjusts a number of bits of data stored in a memory cell included in a memory block, which is allocated for at least one zoned namespace among the plural zoned namespaces, and fixes a storage capacity of the at least one zoned namespace.
