Is it possible to store data without the myDAQ plugged into a computer?

I have a project where I need to store data for later retrieval. Is it possible to do this without the NI myDAQ connected to a computer? 

 

Best outcome would be if the user could plug into the USB connection and they were given a file of the latest data based on a Labview program

Hello kmyork,

This is the NI myDAQ User Guide: http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/373060g.pdf  
This document tells you essentially what can be done and what can't be done with the NI myDAQ. As you can see on page 4, this device doesn't have the components necessary to create files and save them in a USB drive. The USB connection to a computer provides the power for the device to function and is the interface that allows the signals acquired to enter the computer in order to be analyzed, visualized and saved.

I hope this answered your question.
