If a nice clean, smooth hole is important, you could also use a diamond core drill bit. It gets messy, since you need running water to keep the bit cool, though. If breakout on the outside needs to be controlled, you can drill a pilot hole and use that as a guide to drill from both sides. That way, the outside will be neater.
