hard drive - SSHD: Windows: dealing with swapfile

So I've started thinking about buying SSHD (Solid State Hybrid Disk) disks for an older workstation which will never receive a memory above 16GB and is used extensively, so that a page file usage is constantly high.



8GB of SSD cache sounds like something that will wear out fast.



Now, the question: is there a way to make these SSHDs (currently I'm thinking of Seagate ST1000DX001) exclude a predefined area (for the page file) from being cached (both read/write, SLC/MLC)?
