The problem isn't really writing or reading from MLC NAND flash. If it was  
there wouldn't be any good SSD drives. The problem lies elsewhere. In real  
world testing this stuff lasts a *LONG* time. At least the individual MLC  
NAND chips. There are issues relating to power that cause failures in SSD  
drives (low end and older drives).

The power related failures theoretically can be solved by utilizing SLC  
and/or via a super capacitor. I have not had a chance to confirm this in  
real-world use case testing.
