  • Yes, no user action is required for MS updates (as MS suspends Bitlocker for you if needed?) Whereas user action might be required for non-MS updates. But that quote only applies to suspension of the OS drive? What I do not know is whether pure data partitions or removeable drives would ever get suspended by MS, or need to be suspended by the user?

  • Bitlocked Non-system disks are stand-alone, in that they can be moved to other computers (with the right keys). Hardware or software changes on the system disk will not invalidate their encryption keys, so these don't need to be resealed (it's more complicated if you replace the motherboard and its TPM).
