Many years ago it was forbidden to export strong cryptography from the US, like a giant “not for use outside US”.

It’s fine IMO to do the reverse now, even if it becomes the entire US.
It doesn’t matter what you do on the hard drive, you need to go into the BIOS to disable fast boot.
How to do that depends on your PC, search the web for your PC brand and model.
