Will a factory reset on a Lenovo Laptop reset the hard drive to its original state after partitionin

I surprised my wife with a Lenovo laptop, but she decided to stick with her iPad instead. I divided the 1 TB SSH into two 500 GB partitions. If I perform a factory reset before selling it, will the SSH automatically revert back to 1 TB, or do I need to manually reconfigure it?

    Performing a factory reset on your Lenovo laptop will typically restore the device to its original factory settings, which often includes reinitializing the storage configuration. However, whether the SSH (Secure Shell) partition or the overall disk partitioning will automatically revert back to a single 1 TB partition depends on how the reset process handles disk partitioning.
