Although BitLocker has only been developed and released on the Windows version, there's still a way to read and write on a BitLocker encrypted hard drive on Mac.
You need to use third-party software like iBoysoft BitLocker for Mac, which can recognize BitLocker-encrypted drives and mount them as any Mac-friendly physical drives. It can help you to make full use of your BitLocker-encrypted hard drive on your Mac without any limitations.
With such a powerful tool, you can gain full write-read access to BitLocker-encrypted hard drives, like USB, HDD, SDD, SD card, etc. In addition, it is fully compatible with macOS, including the latest macOS version-macOS Sonoma(14), and it supports M2, M2 Pro, M2 Max, M1, M1 Pro, and M1 Max.
- Download and install iBoysoft BitLocker for Mac.
- Connect your BitLocker-encrypted hard drive to your Mac and wait for it to mount successfully.
- Open iBoysoft BitLocker for Mac's home window to unlock it and read-write the BitLocker disk.
You need to type in the passcode or 48-digit BitLocker recovery key to unlock it. What's more, you may need to install the iBoysoft driver to enable System Extensions to grant full disk access if your Mac is M1 or M2 based.
After that, your BitLocker-encrypted hard drive will be mounted in read-write mode so that you can read and write freely on it.
