I'm wanting to transfer all my data from my old hard drives to a new one....what's the best way to do this..

Can you install both hard drives in your computer? This will make it easy for you to copy the data you want to save from your old drive to your new drive. Note, there is a big difference between copying data and copying programs from an old disk to a new disk.

Is it possible to do w/ a clean formatted drive? no operating system?

Sure it is possible. But I suspect you aren't telling us every thing we need to know to give you an intelligent answer. Which disk will have the operating system on it when you are finished? Which disk has the operating system on it know?
