I saw very little difference on a laptop with an Intel SSD. Maybe 5% less disk speed using ATTO.

On the plus side, Bitlocker has the management tools in place for recovery. It's all when and good to use disk-level encryption or TruCrypt (I use the latter). But if you have 10k+ machines to manage, you need centralised recovery management...

No performance decrease, however, no central management. It's so easy and set and forget, that I don't mind that.

I have bitlocker running on the OS's that happen to come with it, and need something for those that don't. Might consider OS upgrade if the encryption piece is too costly. anyone using something they LOVE? any chance there is a program that will report encryption status back to a management station? tiafah.
