It is possible for a USB port to be able to act as either side; this is called USB on-the-go and is present on some mobile phones and tablets. The ports are physically device-type ports, not host-type ports. I've never seen a PC with a device port. This requires electronics on the controller, it isn't enough to make a cable that fits on both ends.
So no, you won't be able to make a PC into a USB device.
If you want to use a computer as a USB storage device, you can use a mobile phone or tablet with a USB connection instead of using a PC.
(wrong thread maybe?)
don't really understand this, I'm not trying to make a pc into a usb device
