If you ever setup a music server on a PC / Mac / or NAS, the trick is to RIP your CD's in batches over time starting with your favorites. But be sure to use good ripping software on the PC/Mac like dBpoweramp. And above all be sure to RIP using lossless compression or no compression at all (no mp3 or aac). You don't want to have to go back and redo your work. I probably don't have as many CDs as you but that's what I did.
I've been using Mac Minis over the years for my music server but recently moved everything to a Synology NAS with 2 disk bays. I use Roon software to manage my music. Roon Core is on the NAS and I use the Roon Remote on my computer or iPad to control it all.
I "stream" over my network to the tiny Sonore microRendu but its interest to note that outstanding performance can be had in a sub $100 DIY streamer using the Raspberry Pi board. I have a couple of those too.
