Not an HA pro, it's been awhile but I believe each way works. The benefit of the restore/connect option is that the configuration is already on the box, so the synching SHOULD take less time. I'm really not sure that the synching would take a bunch of time anyway. One thing to be really sure of is that the priority of the new device is lower (not sure if numerically lower. Do your homework on that piece) than that of the existing device. Get it wrong and the new device with no config will overwrite the master and you'll have a dead network.
