I believe pfsense is not a standalone software. It is a hardned linux OS to act as a gateway/router in your network. In its installation procedure it will format any data in your disk !

Double check this before you continue.

I say that based on my previous experience with pfSense, but it was about one year ago and things may be changed since then.
