It's imperative i keep my old system as the new one will be mainly for mobile work. What's my best course of action, should I just get a new ilok and start over new? Is there a way to upgrade and keep my old version?
this is just my opinion ...

keep the System you have Exactly as it is .. i assume your System is Rock Solid !!

and buy a new version of pro tools (probably find a deal and get a free iLok) - get the new Metal One, much better .. and your choice of Perpetual or Subscription for PT ..

your old iLok will work .. but PT10 will not work on new computer ..

my license is for 10,11,12 ... thats what happened when i upgraded .. not sure how it works now .. BUT this license is not able to be Split Up .. cannot use PT10 on one system and PT12 on another at the same time ... would be nice !!!

i am sure others will have other ideas for you ...
