#87870 - I'd still let the PC do it!

But their on byte write time 5 msec so writing 128k bytes each time will take more 5 minutes.

Nobody said he has to write the whole EEPROM!
Just get the PC to format & write the data as one simple, contiguous, data structure. Doesn't matter if it doesn't fill the EEPROM.

And he has to write code in C at PC side to manipulate those 128 k bytes data in PC - same C code he can use on MCU side)

Yes, with care the code could be written to work on both PC and 8051 - but it would have to be constrained by the lowest common denominator; ie, the 8051.
The point of getting the PC to do the "hard" work is that you are then not constrained by the limitations of the 8051 - you can malloc, or use C++ and do new and all that stuff to your heart's content on a PC.

And linked list File system I have suggested is very easy to implement (though its look complicated in explanation).

Yes - not difficult, but equally not necessary!
And, relative to a simple, contiguous, data structure, it is much more complicated.
