According to Lexar Media, their Compact Flash card has a lifetime expectancy of 500,000 to one million writes on a single bit before failure. Therefore, if your application needs to write to the eXMP-SynqNet every sample period, MEI recommends that such information is read over the network or loaded onto the RAM instead of the Flash card.
