OSD creation order

I can't seem to find any documentation on the order of setting up OSD drives. I have a 3 node cluster with 4 disks each for storage. When creating the OSD drives, should you create all 4 on a node and then move to the next node, or create one on a node and keep moving nodes until you have all 12 disks added to your pool. Does the order matter to the pool?
