Using TPM with Unraid

[dexbot]

Currently I am using Windows 10 Pro Bitlocker on my main PC with a TPM 2.0 module to encrypt my drives.  If I were to install Unraid on that PC baremetal and run Windows 10 in a VM, would I still be able to use bitlocker on the Windows VM drives? Perhaps pass through the TPM module?

 

I tried searching TPM on this forum but it returned 0 results. 

 

Thanks!

Good questions, which I'm not sure I know your answer, but I'd imagine you could run bitlocker in the VM passing through a USB drive with the key.  Probably want to setup the VM first; pass-through the USB thumb drive; then enable bitlocker and test. 

 

As for TPM module, I don't know, if it has a PCI address it could  might be passed -- then again would this sort of encapsulation (VM) break the built-in trust?
