The outcome of the slicer will always be a zero or one, and each sample
is sent as a byte, either 0x00 or 0x01 as you already discovered.
To store them more efficiently, you would use either the 'Unpacked to
Packed', the 'Pack K bits' blocks or the 'Repack Bits' blocks.
If you use 'Pack K bits' and set K to 8, it neatly packs every 8 bytes
(with only a 0 or 1 in them) into a single byte. The first bit to arrive
will get weight 128, then 64, then 32 etc, and the last bit will have a
weight of 1. The data rate out of that block is therefore only 1/8th of
its input data rate.
You can use that block between your slicer and file source in the flowchart.
