Zfs partition

Hi
I want to build a file server using zfs.
I installed the os on mirrored zfs from the bsd installation.
The installation formatted the drives automatically with FreeBSD-zfs partition.

Now I want to add drives to my new pool called Data.
This drives are new.
Do I need to gpart the drives with FreeBSD-zfs partition before adding to the pool,
Or I can add them to the pool without partitioned and it will automatics format them ?

When I added them to the pool without partitions I could not see them with gpart show but the pool is active and there data on it.

So what is the correct way to add new drives to the pool?
 
Just add them to a new pool, no need to partition or format.
