You can’t be storing irreplaceable keys in the TPM chip, they fail all the time. Either you don’t really need the files on the disk or you need backup keys. And note, you can’t even turn on Bitlocker without being forced to save those backup keys.

Does bitlocker give a copy of your keys to you while encrypting your drive? Asking because I'm not a Windows user.

  It does not allow you to turn on until you store the keys on an external disk or print them.
