The Amiga's internal IDE port is not buffered, so you may encounter problems when using longer cables.
If the terminals are normal IDC types:

you can just detach them (be careful, as the clips are easy to break) and, with a bit of force, re-position them further along the cable. Then just snip off the extra IDE cable length using scissors (being careful to make sure there are no protruding wires which may short).
