we're not talking about the hdd/ssd here, those are not really encryption but data packing and compression algorithms, they added encryption because it's a single instruction for extra talking points.
you use veracrypt which doesn't have any hardware attestation (convenience) features, but it does still leave you vulnerable to the same surface PIN+TPM is vulnerable to. the real defense is making it so opening your laptop/desktop physically fuses something via latch and wipes the key off your system requiring re-entry.
of course, who wants to own a laptop/desktop that you can't open we have enough of that with our phones.
