1. A removable non-volatile memory storage device, comprising: a non-volatile memory; and a command parser module within the removable non-volatile memory storage device for: receiving a file from a host system; determining whether the file contains a command that requests an operation by removable non-volatile memory storage device; upon a determination that the file contains a command that requests an operation by removable non-volatile memory storage device, interpreting the contained command, extracting information regarding the operation from the contained command, modifying the contents of the received file to contain the response to be provided to the host system after the operation has been performed, and writing the modified file to removable non-volatile memory storage device, wherein the contained command is in an interface-independent format; and upon a determination that the file does not contain a command that requests an operation by the removable non-volatile memory storage device, writing the file to the non-volatile memory storage device, wherein the modified file is returned to the host system in response to the host system issuing to the removable non-volatile memory storage device a request to read the file.
