Is there any data out there as to whether or not solid state drives improve
system performance while using bitlocker? We have some laptops with TPM
chips that tend to run like slugs. I'm looking for some way to improve the
performance and thought SSD might be the answer.

Thanks
Devin

I'm curious about the configuration your laptops (number and type of
processors, amount of RAM, make/model of hard drive). It's rare the
BitLocker causes any noticeable performance degradation. Please write back
to me at my email address (below). Thanks.
