Disc brake upgrade

I am looking to upgrade to disc brakes on my Trek 6500. The rear triangle and the front fork are disc ready but the wheel sets are not set up to receive rotors. The wheels are 26 inch. New wheel set or swap the hubs? Is there another way I am not familiar with? I am leaning towards a new wheel set. My bike is obviously older. It's a hardtail and I was considering commuting to work with it this Winter. I have not ridden it much because sadly to say I have become mostly a roadie.
That being said I would like to convert it to Hydro discs if it were not too expensive.
