Sorted out and put into computer memory (6)

I believe the answer is:

stored

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

'put into computer memory' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'sorted out' is the wordplay.
'out' is an anagram indicator (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'sorted' anagrammed gives 'STORED'.

'and' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for stored that I've seen before include "Saved up in Dorset" , "Laid aside for future use" , "Stashed away" , "Garnered and saved" , "Put away for future use" .)
