Hi Joshua,
Myths about SSD's arise from early days. You have a new computer with presumably a current SSD. Such SSD's can sustain petabyte (that's petabyte) writes before they fail. If you write a terabyte of Frescobaldi data to the disk in a year, which is utterly unreasonable, you can expect to get 1000 years use out of it. The electronics in your computer will fail sometime in that period. :-) There are admittedly other factors relating to hard drive failure, but mechanical drives suffer the same factors.
I wish people would relax about this topic or read the extensive literature on contemporary drive testing,
There also exist many very learned papers on the same topic, showing very high endurance figures for consumer SSD's.
