What's the endurance like if you actually use it as ram? How many times can you do a "label1: inc [rax]; jmp label1" loop having rax pointing to a particular byte address on the SSD? (With GHz CPUs, wouldn't that mean giga-writes per second? Isn't NAND rated for 10k-100k writes total, and if this is rated for 1000x more than that, you'd still hit a 10m-100m total writes in like a second?)
