Hi,

Yes, yes, and yes. The sd-card is the primary filesystem, but it's a bit slow to write to; you can plug in and mount a USB thumbdrive; and you can use a remote system for storage, either as a server that you connect to with sockets or as network filesystem.
There are different applications available that record the samples and forward them to a filesystem or a remote server.
Knowing your way around linux and a bit of C programming is required to make full use of all options.

how it the card powred ?

The Red Pitaya is powered through a micro USB socket. You need a power source rated 2A or more - any 2A USB charger should do.
