Just use the 3gb ports. You will be pleased.
Your best use for a ssd is for the os. The os does mostly random I/o, and that performance is unaffected by 3gb or 6gb.
Also, pcie sata adapters may not be bootable and will be unsuitable for windows.

A dvd or a hard drive can not saturate 3gb sata, only a ssd can.
So you can put them on any 3gb or 6gb port without any performance impact.
But you want your ssd for the os and it needs to be bootable. So, put your ssd and dvd on the motherboard sata port, and use the add in card for the hard drive
