Each block of Flash can be written millions of times, it will last YEARS
even if you use it as your main harddrive.
Nevertheless, there are CF cards available that have a virtualization chip
that randomizes writes across the entire CF card in order to minimize the
effect.
Fortunately CF will never lose its data or become inaccessible, so even if
you can't write to it anymore, you can just copy the data to a fresh CF card.
