How long for an SSD to do it's business after a long stint in cold storage? (zerobytes.monster)

I'm firing up a computer after it was offline for nearly two years. It's SSD is just a windows drive, the data storage drives are spinning rust. That said, I want to make sure the error protection has a chance to do its thing for the SSD, refill the charge traps so bit rot doesn't set in, ect. Does anyone have any idea how long I should let it run for, before turning it off again (for a month or two this time, not years) to make sure it does it's business?
