Well, maybe, according to: http://www.itworld.com/article/2851057/intel-and-micron-are-going-to-kill-the-hard-disk-drive.html
According to this, Intel is thinking that 10Tb SSDs will be available in a couple of years. From what I have read, despite the "wearing" problem, with SSDs, one which is properly configured (extra memory to dynamically replace worn-out memory and load balancing) can last as long, or longer, than the traditional spinning HD. Of course, I also remember how bubble memory was going to destroy the HD market too. -- The temperature of the aqueous content of an unremittingly ogled culinary vessel will not achieve 100 degrees on the Celsius scale.
