Best solution to send digital files to my DAC


Hi All,
I’m a novice when it comes to digital audio, so:
I have a very good DAC feeding into a good preamp. I have many digitized CDs and hi-rez files stored on my computer, but I would rather transfer them to a better audio device.  What is the best device(s) on which to store all my digital music and send it to my DAC. I don’t care about connectivity with any other devices; I just want to know what’s the best thing to use. Is it a streamer? A server? What’s the difference? What is the simplest way to get the best possible quality from a storage device to my DAC?
Thanks in advance.

Does your DAC support the UPnP protocol (Universal Plug and Play)?  If so, you’re in luck.  If not, I think you’re gonna need to buy some more hardware as others have suggested.
