My Oppo 105 had a 2TB Seagate HD attached by usb to it. I have a Marantz NA 7004, which actually is both a DAC and a Media Player, which does the same thing but very poorly since it is buggy as all get up.
I have 2 other DACs—Mytek Manhatten and Bryston DAC-3–that have USB inputs that theoretically could play usb HD, but the problem is controlling the content. That’s where Media Players come in handy. With the Oppo, I eventually bought a 19 inch monitor to attach to it which I only use to help navigate the various HDs containing music that attach.
I think what the OP probably wants is a combination DAC/Media Player. Lots of choices here. Cambridge Audio, Bluesound, Aurender, Auralic, Naim..... I would scan the offerings of a company like Audio Advisor or Music Direct.
Of note in the Home Theater arena, most AV receivers or Controllers do this routinely, and already have monitors to help navigate (your TV set):
