On the other hand, I read many reports of machines using flash drives,
particularly for things like set-top boxes and audio devices
(often based on VIA EPIA motherboards),
where I presume there are many writes.
I've never seen any kind of warning with these,
or statement about limited life.

There really seem very mixed messages on this.
[I'm interested in a fanless server using a flash drive -
I find the idea that there would be no moving parts attractive.]
