Data should be safe, back-up important data just in case.

You can safely convert your hard drive to NTFS whenever desired.
As always when performing any serious changes, back up any important
data before proceeding, just in case. A little advance preparation is
also strongly recommended, so you can avoid any performance hits
caused by the default cluster size:
