The two white ones are Intel 6GB/s, the 4 black ones directly underneath that are Intel 3Gb/s.  The two gray ones are Marvell 6Gb/s

I'd suggest you put your SSD into the first white slot against the PCB (SATA3_0), and then put your other hard drives on the black slots.   You could put one of your storage drives on the remaining white slot if you want, but it wont get 6Gb/s speeds of course unless it's a 6Gb/s SSD.

Put your CD/DVD drive on the last black slot against the PCB (SATA2_5)
