Quirk with storage VI's and timestamp data.

This is a minor bug (since it's easy to work around if your aware of it)
I'm running LV 8.0.1 and writing a timestamp through the Write Data Storage VI, will store different times
depending on whether I pass just the timestamp in or the timestamp wrapped in an array. The timestamp
wrapped in an array is accurate, but a single timestamp is by 10 hours behind (and considering that I'm in
the PST (GMT-8:00) timezone), I'm not sure why it's 10 hours off.
 
I attached a VI that demostrates what is happening. The workaround for now is just to wrap timestamps in arrays
before sending them into the write data storage vi.
