Maybe get lost in storage facility (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

megabyte

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'storage facility' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't see how one could define the other.

'maybe get lost' is the wordplay.
'lost' indicates anagramming the letters.
'maybe'+'get'='maybeget'
'maybeget' anagrammed gives 'MEGABYTE'.

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for megabyte that I've seen before include "Mb expanded" , "Amount of computer memory - get maybe (anag)" , "1,048,576 bytes" , "amount of information" , "Hundreds of thousands of words" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times (Crosaire) and the Irish Times.
