The G4 iBook is what I have used with great success. It is quiet enough to use in your room without having to worry about noise.
I would recommend reading Gordon Rankin's primer at his website (wavelengthaudio.com)
I use 3 laptop drives in MacAlly cases. (per Gordon) They are quiet enough that they can sit behind the laptop and not be heard. Then for backup I use a large drive that is switched off when not in use.I use USB to connect to my dac but there are options here. First is to decide what type of dac you like..nonos or upsampling for example.
