Cool!

I'm still running Ultimate 10, so this will get me lots of extras, including Kontakt 6!
Thanks for posting!

Depends on each developer, some allows it, some don’t 

I've messaged Sample Modelling, it's not clear on their site. One of the contact links wasn't working, but I found another.

Thanks for the heads up on this. I've had NI 10U and had never seen the point in an upgrade for the price. As it happens i was also shopping acoustic guitars sample libraries. This has at least one decent one in it and extra orchestral libraries I didn't have in 10U and who can't use yet another orchestral sample library?  For 299 quid i would not have jumped. For 99 quid to move to 12U. Yeah I'll do that.

BH is in NY so it isn't a huge hop for it to get to my place. I have never before had a hard drive with Komplete on it. I always used the online downloads which were quite extensive with something like Komplete.

If I get this I am wondering if I can simply use it from the hard drive and forget what is stored as 10U on my computer? That is of course, once I have affirmed my ownership of 10U to get the update.

If I understand the question correctly...

No, you can't use it from the included hard drive. The hard drive is an installer.
You install it from the hard drive. No need to uninstall 10U. 
You can't even see anything on the drive except for the exe install program.

You will receive a paper with the serial number along with the hard disk.
The first thing to do is to open Native Access and enter the serial number.
After it registers to your account Native Access will tell you that you have 53 "not Installed" items.

At this point you can either click the button to download the updates from the internet (don't do it, too big)
or you can plug in the hard drive and double click the installation exe file.
It will ask you if you really want to downgrade Native Access because you have a newer version on your computer.
Just click "yes" and let it reinstall the older version of Native Access. Keep the hard drive plugged in and open Native Access
and click the update all products button. It will install the 53 items using the hard drive.

The review on the page is not reassuring. ?

The person writing the review probably didn't know that you need a previous version of Ultimate to use this.
I received mine today and it's all registered and good.
