I kind of want to unpack this statement a bit more. The number of cycles of a flash chip is the number of times each bit is erased/written to. If you're wear-levelling the device this means that each time you write the capacity of the device to the chip that's one cycle. The affected flash chip is 8GB. This means that Tesla thinks it's reasonable for their software to write just over 11GB of data a day to this device. What the hell are they writing? The endurance of their flash chip may be industry standard but their use of it certainly is not.
