but I'm confused about the doubling up thing if you take it back to the very begining. Can I assume that they don't work from Bytes and go up, they just invented 1 Gb chips?

The SSD is a bastardisation of USB key tech, so imagine a bunch of USB keys all wired up with complicated mathmatics to make them work as a single drive.
It doubles because that structure is based on a bunch of seperate memory chips working together. It doesn't necessarily have to double, but in practice it does because it's the best way to get a range out quickly.
