Node-Red file permissions

I wish to have Node-Red write/append to a text file on a USB stick using the "write file node" so I can review events etc at a later date.

Is this a good idea or is there a better way? There file write permissions as everything belongs to 'root'!

Thank you for any help or suggestions.

How about writing to an external database?

Not thought of that. Any suggestions/tips on how to get the database to live on the USB stick?
