Is there a simple method for changing the configuration of md before I
switch the slave drive to be the slave on the secondary controller?
I think they will pair up automatically if you shut down cleanly
and move the connector. If not, just 'mdadm --add' it back after
it comes up with a missing member. If you have to add it back,
the drives will have to resync so there is a small risk of
failure during the process.

great thanks - am I right in thinking that having both mirrored drives
on the same controller master/slave is likely a cause of slowness?
It will make some difference on writes, but reads should only
be done on one of the drives anyway. I doubt if it makes a huge
difference unless you have an application writing all the time.
