Do I have to worry about write cycles for my shieldTV's internal storage? its the 16gb model using flash storage.

I'm using this for my shields plex server app. WIll this write to internal storage before sending the videos to clients via plex? or does it only store chunks in ram? And would this include for transcoding video files as well?

Or is there a way so that it will write to external storage instead of the internal storage? Pardon my ignorance. And thanks for a response.

Extra question: Regarding the plex server on my shield what would be the best rclone parameters to use?

Unless you are using rclone cache option I guess. In most of the cases, it uses RAM for getting chunks. If you are using transcoding then it depends on which directory transcoding is happening. I suggest disable transcoding if your clients can handle the formats. Transcoding is very inefficient and requires high cpu usage. It will also create unnecessary files.
