If any consumer ever reaches the limits of either medium in terms of read/writes I will be truly shocked.

I've never managed it. I've never reached the end life of a hard drive either.

Because storage keeps expanding, as do my needs, and long before any theoretical limit is reached I've upgraded.

You're not trying hard enough. I killed about 4 hdds personally (2 were uberfast and flawed IBMs but the others were WD and Seagate and should've lasted) and quite a few have failed in servers I've worked with.
