Paragraph Number

7

Using write-in-place for solid-state storage can lead to premature failure of the solid-state storage because typically each cell in a solid-state storage device can only be written to a certain number of times before the cell begins to fail. Write-in-place typically does not evenly distribute writing data over the solid-state storage so some regions or addresses are used much more than other areas. This overuse of some areas can lead to premature failure of all or a portion of a solid-state storage device.
