Good luck

there's lots to learn but much to benefit.

I have an Oppo 103 but rarely use it for file playback as the interface is crude. Spend some time around here and you'll find the most cost effective answer - albeit with some DIY is the Raspberry Pi platform. There are multiple flavors of free software you can use with it. Remote control via smartphone, pad or watch.

As for your specific question, there companies like Sabrent who make enclosures for 2.5 and 3.5" hard drives that are externally powered. I leverage an older 3.5 drive for backup duties using one.
