Ah perhaps I misunderstood

Alternatively, hook up both consoles to your router via LAN cables and the entirety of your drive contents can be beamed across to the Pro. (but be warned, this may actually take longer than the drive back-up option)

Maybe DF didn't try a direct connection in their haste to get a review out.

Any chance I can just swap hard drives? Or do they have diferent operating systems? Would just be easyer to swap and update.

No, that would be too easy
We've been asked if you can simply rip out your old HDD and implant it into the Pro - this doesn't work as all drives are encrypted, and each individual PS4 has its own encryption key.
I tried with a ylod ps3 before, installing the hdd in a new one, doesn't work. Can't read the drive either on PC.
