Not unless you entered your recovery code to unlock it on the old computer with the external tpm.

Question: if I have an bitlocker encrypted SSD in a modern computer with embedded TPM, can I move this SSD to an old computer with external TPM to sniff the cod this way? Be gentle. I am dumb. Thanks.

Nope. As soon as you move the disk to your second system/TPM, you lose any ability to decrypt it at all.

The key is inside the TPM.

For LUKS user set the key; for bitlocker, I believe the key is automatically uploaded to either your Microsoft account or you system admin’s account.

The Key is stored on the Internal TPM. Only it can unlock the SSD.

“Sniff the cod” This is a typo right? I don’t know any better, but I had a good laugh.
