Hey there, OsamaDeep.

In my opinion the best case scenario would be the following one:
SSD - OS & Program Files.
RAID 0 - since you need fast storage and probably the RAID should cover it, go with that option
WD Elements - backup your projects and other important info. External backups are more reliable than internal, since they are not exposed to the same threads as the other drives in the PC (such as, power surges, viruses, liquid spills, etc.).

Hope that helps. Please let me know if you have any questions.
