You can't. Only the Write Filter with windows Embedded does that.
The number of writes is called endurance. SSD's can be written to death in as little as a few hours when an error happens every few seconds in the event log. This is also why Indexing and Pagefiles etc are not a good idea for an SSD. He's Dead Jim.
You are doomed to writing until it reaches 1000 or 10,000 writes then the drive is dead. 1000 for TLC and 10,000 for MLC.
