Can you wear an SSD this way? As I understand it they have an internal
OS that is constantly shifting the data around anyway, and putting in
some more from outside really doesn't make a great deal of difference.

I would not worry about SSD wear - I have been using them in laptops for
a while - my current one is over a year old and shows 100% on the
Wear_Leveling_Count (that's good, 0% is "dead").

I'm not particularly worried about SSD wear as I've also (so far) used some
for years. But some of the people who use my program may be using
conventional spinning rust. And there *are* wear mechanisms for SSD
according to reports I've read. Just that in practice I (and many others)
don't seem to have run into problems with it.
