Music Server To Only Play FLAC Stored On Portable HDD

Is there a music server with all the bells and whistles excluded? A music server with the single feature to connect to portable HDDs and play all music formats such as FLAC etc. which are stored on the hard disc drives.

Will this music server sound better than a laptop? Any insight appreciated.

A Pro-ject Stream Box Ultra S2 is built on a RPi, but with power supplies optimized. I’ve got a 128 Gb flash memory stick attached & it is now a music server.

FWIW, it sounds pretty good. Definitely better than a PC (without an Etherregen or other USB decrapifier device attached)
