Bitlocker General Help

I would like to turn on BitLocker and have a few questions. (Windows 7 Ultimate)
1. Once BL has encrypted the disk, I’m wonder what happens if I copy a file from my computer to another computer, is the file encrypted? I suppose no….
2. I am using BIOS (host) Raid , will turning on Bitlocker destroy the raid10?
3. I only have one partition, what instructions should I follow to install?
4. I am ordering a TPM chip, can I turn on BL and use a usb drive and then when the TPM chip comes in, switch to the TPM instead of the usb dirve?
Thanks for your help...
