you hardly can avoid the read on the source disks anyways

in case of RAID10 i would just pull half of the disks (you notice when
it was the wrong "pair") and move on with rebuild on half of the array
with new ones, in case everything goes wrong the rmeove ones hold the
complete dataset

for other than RAID1/RAID10 you have no other option than go ahead and do it
