People are getting crazy when it comes to lowering write cycles on SSD !
While it was a problem some time ago; it is completely solved with TRIM and
internal controllers.
For example look at:
http://techreport.com/review/25320/the-ssd-endurance-experiment-22tb-update
Its not really representative of the daily use of the SSD but it gives an
idea of the endurance of this type of storage.
SSD is now a safe storage system; moreover when you will a cell; it becomes
a read-only memory, no data is lost. But it's really not the best
value/memory at the moment; and it's advantages are not really interesting
for casual storage purpose.
That was my 2 cents, bye :)
