I wouldn't swap them as they'll be bedded in for the pads the way they are. You can fit them either way.

As MattB says, it can go either way. However, some discs manufacturers have specific directions for their grooves. With these sort of discs, their vents (as seen from the sides of the disc) are slanted to the direction of the grooves.
