Difficult to comment as I do not know your workload but SSD drives in most cases last much longer than people think. I am heavy user I think and I use 1% of drive writes per year. Even if I used 5% than drive would last 20 years... I stopped paying any attention to this.

Without any cache you have to carefully test your software and e.g. in your case stop using this particular file browser - or try to fix it with its authors.
