If these on-board memories suffer the same problem, they have a BIG disaster looming! But, if you only use the on-board memory for the boot directory, and have the Linux / directory on an external SD card, then there probably is no problem, especially if you can prevent all writes to the internal memory. if it is never written, it will never have to invoke the wear-leveling, which is at least thought to be related to the failures.
