What shouldI I do when the HDD which contains contents of Komplete broke down?

It’s OK to cry a little… 😜
Then, after you compose yourself - buy a new HDD/SSD and re-download your content from NI user account.0 -
I might be the only guy here who actually BACKS UP my VST drives. It's faster to restore from a backup to a new drive than it would be to re-download everything. And I say that having high speed internet (over 1,000 mbps).
Just in Native Access alone, I have 406 items. And if you count my Arturia and other products, I'm probably well over 500. All four of my VST drives add up to over 6TB of data, so there's no way re-downloading would be desirable unless I was completely starting all over again with a fresh install of Windows. And I take backups so that I'll never have to do that.
