Does the file system of my disks matter *before* I install TrueNAS and add them to a pool?

Post Body
I am at the point of assembling my first home server and will soon be installing TrueNAS. I have a pair of Easystores, I plan to shuck. Before doing so, I wanted to make sure they were formatted correctly.
I know the disks will formatted into the ZFS file system when I add them to a pool, but does it matter what file system the drives are before that? I am finding very little info about that, so I am assuming it does not, but I wanted to ask just to be sure.
