Is it enough to use 8x1Mbit flash memory to store all the following data

1. Total data = 200
2. Each Data format = Year (4 digit) + Month (2 digit) + Date (2 digit) + No.of count (5 digit)
3. All digits are in decimal

(4+2+2+5) * 200 => 2600 (bytes) or half of it if you put each digit into one nibble (2 nibbles per byte) ..

Size required:
2.6k x 8
Available:
8M x 8
