What's the best way to do a transition if you want to turn up a new system and start configuring it and then transfer your license over and shut down the old system?  Can you transfer the license to a different key?

You can do an automated license transfer once per year, if you have another usb drive failure and need to transfer again before the year is up you would need to contact limetech through email and explain the situation.

It can be helpful to stand up a new system using a trial license to sort out any hardware issues prior to moving your main license over.

That's exactly what I would want to do.  Build a new system with a trial license and get it working properly - then transfer over your data and license.

Note that in most cases all you need to do is (a) build the new system;  (b) connect all of the drives from the old system to the new one; and (c) simply boot to your USB flash drive .... and the new system will work just fine.

 

The only time that's an issue is if you have an unsupported controller on the new system and it doesn't "see" one (or more) of your drives.

 

... and that's easy to test with a trial key by just connecting  a drive to each of the controller on the new system.
