Abstract
A memory system digitally communicates with a host device to provide data storage capacity for the host device. The memory system includes at least one module including a nonvolatile memory section that is made up of a plurality of memory devices and the module includes a bit density function to assign a storage density to each memory device such that one group of the memory devices is configured to store data at a high storage density and another group of the memory devices is configured to store data at a low storage density. The module independently performs the bit density function for the nonvolatile memory section of each module based on one or more module input parameters.
