Supposed to be used in industrial products (car navigation, etc). Lacks speed but excels in other areas. Can't wait to try one of these.

TDK's proprietary global static wear leveling algorithm counts the number of times each
memory block is erased (programmed) and replaces all blocks uniformly. Static blocks
such as for the OS are also periodically leveled, which drastically improves the lifespan of
the installed flash memory. For example, assuming a daily data write volume of 10 GB,
an SSD with 16 GB capacity will support over 200 years* of rewrite operations. The
range for static wear leveling can be freely set. (In this case, dynamic wear leveling is
used for other areas.) Source.
