You have me puzzled here. How does it "wear out" solid state?


Flash type memory has a finite number of read/write cycles after which
it is prone to failure. (Stuck bits, ect) Most are above the 100K cycle
range, these days, so if your constantly doing Read/Writes to flash
memory eventually it will fail, and leave you with a blown OS. OEM's
spec the MTBF for each part in the literiture.
