N25Q00A, MX66U2G45G, IS25LP01G & W25H02JV are some of the QSPI flashes on 
which we tested. Additionally, we conducted tests on over 30 different 
QSPI flashes from four distinct vendors (Miron, Winbond, Macronix, and ISSI).

I'm sorry, but I don't quite understand what you mean by "if each flash in 
its own package."

Yes, I agree.

Sure.
