It depends on how you set it up. I think the default in some cases (like Windows Bitlocker) is to store the key in TPM, so everything becomes transparent to the user at that point, although many disagree with this method for privacy/security reasons.

The other method is to provide a password or keyfile during bootup, which does change something for the end user somewhat.
