SSD + Raid0 Harddrives

Hi there.

I've just put together a system build with the Asus Sabertooth P67 (for complete specs check out http://forum.overclock3d.net/index.php?/topic/34363-hi-there/)

So this is what I'm planning to do:

I got 1 Corsair 60gb "Force Series" SSD which is for Windows 7 Ultimate, AV etc.

Then I got 2x WD 640gb sata-6gb/s harddrives that I wanna put in raid0

The problem is, I'm not certain which sata ports are the most optimal for each drive

The Sabertooth has got 8 Sata ports in total. 4 black ones which are normal sata-3gb/s ports on the intel controller. 2 brown ones, which are sata-6gb/s on the intel controller with raid enabled as well. And at last, 2 grey ones, which are sata-6gb/s on the Marvell controller without raid enabled.

At the moment, I'm planning to put my 2 HDD's in the brown sata-6gb/s ports to run those in raid0.

I got my Optical drive in port port 6 (sata-3gb/s).

And here's the problem: Which of the ports is the most optimal one to be having my SSD in? At the moment, I got it in one of the Marvell controllers, but I get the impression from reading about that, that's not the optimal port?

Hope I've given sufficient information, please ask if you need to know more.
