We do something similar to this.

We do it by having a second NIC card on the machines using internal IPs
and simply use a cross-over cable in between them. It is not on the
network (and it also won't use up your network bandwidth).

I didn't understand exactly your hard-drive swap idea, but it sounds like
the computers are local to each other, so just having an extra NIC card
and connection may work for you.
