Just as you have two HDDs in a RAID array for redundancy, you should not rely on a single SSD. If you cannot afford two SSDs then I second the suggestion to replace one of the HDDs with the SSD and set the HDD write-mostly. Do also check the exact sector counts as it is entirely possible that a "500GB" SSD is actually slightly smaller than your "500GB" HDDs.
