Installing Daz content onto 2nd PC

My desktop recently died, onto which ( had installed all of my Daz content using DIM, into Documents/DAZ3D/MyLibrary. I am awaiting delivery of  a new desktop onto which I intend to install my Daz content. Will there be any issue in installing Daz content onto a 2nd PC? Note that I cannot uninstall my Daz content from my dead desktop as it is not operational and I can't access any stored content.

    I'm not aware of any limitations on how many computers you can install your content on, so long as the computers are all your own.

    You can redownload content I'm pretty sure unlimited times, tho try not to abuse it as it does cost money per tb on Daz's side, and your drives can only take so many terabyte write before failing.
     

    I believe when you log into a new Daz it logs out the old one.
     

    What died on your first? If the ssd/Hdd isn't dead and bitlocker isn't enabled or you have the "key"(login to microslop acc, it's buried in there) you can transplant the drive. I transplanted my 2 nvme drives from my laptop to a desktop with minor hiccups(needed Ethernet connection as WiFi cards are different but once drivers were installed all is well). Then you can just keep going without having to re-setup/download everything.

    Also, I'd invest in 2 external drives, 1 ssd and 1 Hdd. I back up my 3rd party library ~every 2 months(I don't add a ton anymore like when I first started).

    Thanks both for your comments and advice. New desktop up and running, running Daz Studio 2025 with RTX 5060. No problem installing Daz content through DIM. All other non-Daz content had been copied to an external hard drive so was easily recovered.
