Most flash these days uses a controller chip which implements wear levelling, so two writes to the same LBA/sector may actually be stored at different locations in the flash. It would take over a year of constant writing to the drive - every sector - at 100MB/sec to break the 100,000 individual sector count. Unless you're using trying capture 10 security cameras at 30fps 24/7 you'll probably never even get anywhere near the limit...
