Do I need to format NAS Hard Drive for RN214
So I deleted the partitions on PC due to I was testing QNAP NAS, I did not like it. So I bought RN214. When I deleted all partitions on the NAS hard drive on PC using disk managment, it show unallocated, is it ok? Is it ok if I plug in unallocated NAS drive to RN214 for first time use?

If the disk has no partitions, you won't need to format it in the RN214's web ui (or use the boot menu to force a factory install).
