BitLocker doesn't work on software RAIDs, but it does work for hardware RAIDs. I'm running a RAID 1 under Windows 7 Ultimate x64 and wanted a way to secure my drives with BitLocker. So I did a lot of research to finally find the answer on Microsoft TechNet's site, buried deep.
' Hi, do you have any solutions to help me recover my lost word document files in the BitLocker encrypted partition? I did a false operation that I happen to delete some important word documents in Windows 10. The partition where I lost files is a BitLocker partition where I used to store important data. So do you have any clue to help me recover the deleted documents without damaging or losing further files in the encrypted BitLocker partition? Tip: Stop using BitLocker partition immediately When you lost or delete important files from the BitLocker encrypted partition in Windows 10/8/7, it's highly recommended for you to stop using the BitLocker partition immediately. This will help you to protect lost files from being overwritten by new data.
Solution: Restore/deleted files from Windows 10/8/7 BitLocker partition Is that possible to find a way out of the BitLocker partition file recovery issue? Professional can help. It allows you to simply find and restore lost files from partitions, hard drive disk, external storage devices such as SD card etc with simple clicks. EaseUS file recovery software will help you restore unlimited lost files from encrypted BitLocker partition with simple clicks: Unlock or decrypt the encrypted BitLocker partition with passcode first.

Is it possible to have (preferrably with Windows-on-board tools of Windows Server 2012 R2 and Windows Server 2016) to have a software raid mirror on 2 encrypted disks? (Locally preferred.) From what I know, I have to use an SSD for normal/fast hardware encryption (at least via Bitlocker), so I am planning to put 2 ssd disks into a SW mirror. I want to achieve 2 things: 1) theft protection a) if hardware gets stolen, drives are useless to thief 2) failure protection a) if a drive fails, the other takes over and the failed drive can be replaced b) if the pc fails, the drives run in another pc (or at least can be recovered) The drives will be home of some VM hard drives, so they don't need to be bootable/system drive. They should unlock automatically on Windows startup though, in order to reboot the machines unattended, also to have the hyper-v vhds available straight away. Is this possible? If so, how is this possible?
This is definitely possible, and not too difficult to achieve. What you have to do is get a hardware RAID controller (Bitlocker doesn't work on software RAIDs), and set two drives up in, so that even if one of the drives fails, the other has a complete copy of all the data. Once you have the drives set up in a RAID array, all you have to do is configure Bitlocker as you normally would on a drive. So if the computer stops working, you can access your data from another computer, and if someone steals your drives, they won't be able to access your data.
