RE: Computer AC noise

As long as your "extra" ground is within the house interior and tied to your house electrical ground, you are safe. It may still cause a ground loop but that just results in more hum.

What you don't want to do is to drive in a separate Earth ground rod and connect that to your audio components. All ground rods must be heavily bonded together. If not this does create a serious hazard for lightning and utility ground faults.
