Inserts into table that has a Primary key/Unique constraint

We do a lot of inserts into a table that has a primary key on an identity
column. Also the key is defined as a unique constraint.
Theory would call for some additional latency as it has to check for
uniqueness, but since its an identity column, can we safely remove that
unique constraint and that way, we can speed up the inserts ?You may ignore this thread. I guess the primary key has a unique constraint
to it
