upgrade computer for new account
 

I need to upgrade the desktop Im using for one of my EB accts to a faster machine. Would I get linked if I used another computer I have that I was using for a different EB acct (inactive), even if I swap hard drives? Do computers have their own signature they give out? If so does EB have these on file?

Normally when I upgrade hardware I reinstall the OS to wipe any old data

eBay/PayPal cant see any HW signature of your PC.

If you create a different user account on your OS or reintall the OS to wipe any old data, you will be good to go.

Why not just copy the contents of the hard drive to a SSD drive. SSD's provide much faster read and write cycles vs normal hard drives. It will really speed up your logging and out of user accounts.

Amen. Times Ten.

Start up and switching is so much faster with an SSD drive, and they are so cheap now- it's likely one of the best upgrades for your money when setting up Stealth accounts.
