What do you mean by safely swap it? If you want to switch hard drives, just format it if you want to reuse the hard drive.

Clone the old hdd to the new one, and if you want to pay, I recommend Acronis for cloning hdd

If it's a WD drive Acronis is free (a trial type thing but the cloning works), if it's not there are plenty of other free cloning programs.
