Agreed that the OP would/should not have any real SSD wear putting the cache on the SSD, but using a cheap USB stick for the cache would mean no writing to the SSD by LMS, so why not?
Because you want SSD for performance. By putting the most performance critical part on the slowest storage this kind of is wrong. And adding a fast storage to USB2 really defeats the point of the additional money spent.
I'd not worry too much and just go with a good SD card. I've been running my pCP based server for 18+ months on the same SD card. It's easily and relatively cheaply replaced should it ever fail.
