Ya, the cheaper MLC versions have a limited write "lifetime" or whatever you'd call it. Using it to write will reduce the lifetime of the drive by quite a lot. And the OS is doing a lot of writing. :P
It's no longer a problem. Google it and you'll find pleny of reviews saying the limited writes is a myth. Besides, how many hard-drives have you had crash on you? I've had 3... I'll take limited writes and significantly increased reliability and reading speed over a problem that many say doesn't exist.
