Windows 10: Is BitLocker made for SSDs?

Is BitLocker made for SSDs?

Setup BitLocker Encryption On Win 10 Pro 64Bit Solid State Drive(SSD)?

Jesse, I have no idea why you are having problems getting BitLocker to work on an SSD. I had no problems whatsoever getting it to work on my Samsung 970 EVO, which is a PCIe NVMe SSD.

Your post is inadequate: it lacks many details which might help someone diagnose your problem. You should start with complete details of your SSD and perhaps your computer, and then list all the steps that you took to try to set up BitLocker.

I have no idea if this will help you, but I posted full details of how I configured BitLocker on my system here.
