![]() ![]() ![]() I can't confirm this, I've only used a TPM in an R5E as a unique "hardware identity dongle" for running certain professional software packages. (Normally, one can always attempt data recovery by transferring the drive into another machine and working off cloned images.)įrom what I've read, not all ASUS ROG motherboards have "proper" TPM support in BIOS. You can only attempt recovery/decryption on the computer with the TPM installed, not any other machine (with or without the TPM), and this might be a catastrophic pain if your computer just won't work. You may have off-site backups somewhere (in the cloud, discs, flash drives, etc) but they cannot be decrypted/recovered without the TPM key.Ģ) the BitLocker drives/volumes/data somehow crash or get corrupted. It's not really of much use to most consumers because chances are you'll lose your BitLocked data one of two ways:ġ) the computer is physically destroyed or stolen - along with all your encrypted data and the TPM key needed to decrypt it. ![]() The TPM basically functions as a unique hardware key so that "secured" data/drives cannot be decrypted on other platforms. You can run BitLocker without a TPM chip. ![]()
