You might see if you can swap positions in the case first, then I guess you would have nothing to try but actually flipping master with slave (and contents as well, good fun).
Just wondering, where is your swap? Your Journal? Do you have a small fast drive you could use for swap and external journal? I checked all the machines which have a similar configuration, and I don't see any pattern, although all the machines with really high i/o load are using SCSI.
