Are there any stand alone servers, that do NOT have a streaming function?


All of my music is stored on .wav files and I run them to my preamp from my PC via a Xonar Essence STX sound card. 

I would like to find a decent server without all the different streaming corporations embedded into the product. I really don't appreciate the sound of my fans in my PC competing for the "black space" between instruments and vocals.

I know I'm a bit old school (even had someone laugh when I told them I still listen to CD's), but I'm very happy with my system now and I'm just wanting to eliminate the fan noise. 

I thought about building my own dedicated server, but I don't know how to code or program, so I'm a bit lost. Every search I do for a music server always results in a ton of streamers. That is not what I need. Before Roon, Qobuz, etc. were there any plain old SSD or HDD servers?

OP       I’m a bit old school (I still listen to CD’s),  just wanting to eliminate the fan noise. 

What you need an all-in-one digital player. Check  WT-95. WAV files play great with this most accurate and cleanest sound SACD, CD, flac, media player. No fan noise or almost no noise..
