More the lidea of reading from the ssd first.
The way fs(4) driver works is you order your drives
with the first written at one end of the queue and first read at the other.

I assume the read rate and rotational latency of an ssd should
be better than hdd so I get the best performace.

I should add that Erik once warned me (and I believe him) that ssds are
really no more reliable in terms of MTBF than hhds, its just that they are more
robust to impact - just in case anyone thinks they last forever...
