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.

I did exactly this, though I replaced a 1TB disk with a 2TB sata SSD to avoid 
that problem, and at some point I'll replace the remaining disk with an nvme 
drive now that I've replaced the MB, then I'll grow the filesystems to fit.
