changing the cabling on RAIDed IDE drives?

We set up a pair of IDE drives as a mirrored RAID on a B&W G3, using a
third-party PCI controller card. Some while later, I realized that we
could probably get better performance by putting the two drives on two
separate cables (the card has two independent IDE channels).
Before I recable the drives, however, I'd like to KNOW that this won't
confuse the RAID software. Clues? Pointers?

P.S. The RAID is NOT being used for booting.
