if you have any sensitive data on it erase it securely first.
formatting the drive does not always erase data.
Yet when i've tried to recover data after someone accidentally repartitioned one (without writing any data), no utilities managed anything whatsoever.
I've never had a problem getting data from a drives that have only
been formatted (unless the formatting overwrote all the sectors)
What about deleting the partition?
If it was merely that just run gpart.
that's what it's for, it'll get all your files back.
