You should be able to set a boot order better suited for your setup there. And if that does not work, just move the sata cables around seems like the most straight forward solution. Although I think I've heard it is bad practice to use raw devices for zfs, especially if need to replace a drive, which day happens to be a different revision, with a few fewer blocks available. Then you will not be able to do the replace.
