If I understand what you're asking correctly (I.E. using "Reset this PC") you'll be using the same drive. You'll be able to clone to a new drive if you wish once it's done.

If you intend to completely reinstall windows (which is the much preferred option - reset tends to leave behind a lot of unnecessary junk), you'll be able to install windows on any drive you wish.
