Yes, SSDs do have write limitations, but for all practical purposes, modern
SSDs are likely to outlive the rest of the system they're installed in.  I love
them, and will happily use a SSD for the performance gains on the OS drive.  A
spinning HDD is still handy for bulk data storage though, because they're far
cheaper in larger sizes.
