And if it is... is it going to kill my 8.1 retail license?? Also, if it isn't locked to one PC, whenever I need to do a fresh wipde of the HD am I going to need to install 8.1 from the DVD and then download the upgrade all over again? Hmmmm.
So many questions and the answers don't seem to be available anywhere.

does this cover it?
You would have to own a retail copy of Windows 10 to change hardware however..
