Steamer That Plays and Rips CD's an has Internal Storage

I’m new to digital streaming and have a question for the group. I am looking for a streamer (for Tidal) that will also rip and play CD’s. It would have to have at least 2 TB of storage, preferably more. The reason for a one box solution is lack of space in my rack. I currently have a Apollo-R CDP.

My integrated does not have digital in, only analog in.

Any ideas? My budget would be about $2500.

I'm located in KY and found a great dealer in Nashville, TN.   ATELIER 13 AUDIO, give them a call, extremely easy(and interesting) to talk with.

Thanks for the info.
It looks like wifi is not an option with the Zen MkIII.
It would be very difficult for me to run a wire to my rack.
Would one of these work?

Sony or many others. but all these I believe is over priced with build in storage. I would use external storage. You might want use SSD for low noise. You can read and write to SSD from regular hardrive very qick. I just a USB thumb stick.
