An entire filesystem (~180g) needs to be copied from one local linux

I've done this sort of thing before a few times in the past in different
ways, but wanted to get input from others on what's worked best for them.
If shutting the machines down is feasible, I’d put the source hard drive into the destination machine and use rsync to copy it from one drive to the other (rather than using rsync to copy from one machine to the other over the network).
And then you are assured that all files are closed before copying.
