> NAND flash is used, with 100,000 to 1,000,000 write cycles

Damn, where can you get that kind of flash chips with even 100k cycles endurance? I'd like to place a large order. 64 Gbit chip, please.

1000-3000 P/E cycles is typical endurance for MLC NAND flash, not 100-1000k. SLC chips would fare better, but larger ones are too expensive for typical applications.
