Mixing ceramic and Semi

Well I have done this before (without realizing) but is there any real negative effect to putting ceramics in the front and semi metallic in the rear?

The front rotors will get eaten up quicker than the rears. That's about it really.

no, combining them front and rear will not cause a negative effect.

depends on the pad. More aggressive pads will improve stopping performance.

What should I do? Wagner thermoquiet ceramic in the front semi in the back or semi all around? I have slotted and dimpled up front and slotted in the rear.
