According to this:

It doesn't seem to be an issue... all mechanical disks would have failed many times before any solid state disks (based on flash memory) would show any fatigue...

That is: The flash itself is not wearing out. Of course if there is any design fault in SD interface itself that just can not cope with high I/O... that's another story?
