Doesn't really matter. Might want to do it now so that you will have time to troubleshoot it if something should happen to go wrong. If you don't want it to show up as an empty drive in file explorer you can format it, but not assign it a drive letter - or remove the drive letter after formatting.
First let me say that everyone in this forum has been a GREAT help in solving the many questions that have come about since I have tried to format a large hdd
