While XPCT.OS only requires 10.1 gigs of space on a disc to run, startup disc will not by default allow for any permanent file storage on the disc for any space left over beyond 10.1 gigs.  What follows below will explain how to modify the startup disc to allow any extra space it has beyond the actual OS to be used for storage space.
While this process can be done with XPCT.OS, it requires either a local install of XPCT.OS on a machine OR 2 XPCT.OS discs.  In the case of 2 XPCT.OS disc, the XPCT startup disc being modified to allow for disc storage space must be inactive while directions below would be followed using the XPCT.OS disc being actively ran.

STEP 1: Open Gparted

STEP 2: Select the USB startup disc to be modified.
In the example case below /dev/sda is a local hard drive split into two partiations while /dev/sdb is the desired USB XPCT.OS startup disc to be modified to allow for disc storage. 

STEP 3: Once the correct disc holding XPCT.OS has been selected, two partitions will be noticed on the disc, one named "SBLIVE" of a 100MB size, and another significantly larger partition named "SBROOT" that will have some amount of white spacing following an initial partially shaded spacing.  The white spacing is empty space that may be used for storage.  Right click on the "SBROOT" partition and select to  "Unmount" the disc. 

STEP 4: Right click on the "SBROOT" partition again and select to "Resize/Move" 

STEP 5: Use the resize handle to the right side and slide it to just shy of eliminating all white space.  Then click the "Resize/Move" button located on the lower right side of the window.

STEP 6: Right click on the newly created greyed out "unallocated" area and select "New"

STEP 7:  Use the "Create as:" drop down menu to select fat32 and then use the "Label:" section to type in a name for the new disc storage area.  Then click the "Add" button located at the lower right of the window.

STEP 8: Click the green check mark/"Apply All Operations" button and then click Apply.

Gparted can now be closed and the storage space on the startup disc may now be used for storing files.
