Default Best way to copy one hard drive to another?

So i'm getting an advance RMA through WD for my 640GB Caviar.
I'd like to backup everything that's on my current HD to my new one before i send the defective one with bad sectors back.
What is the best way to do this? Plug in the other HDD and format then proceed to copy/paste?
Or is there another way to directly transfer files right over? I need it to be exactly the same because of file allocations and paths.

Thanks HWC
