I think you're right about things being a grey area. In the physical we use very well-defined computers to access information. In dreams I've used computers that were really very little like any I've used in waking life, but they were still essentially computers.

So it's probably the case that the higher in frequency you go, the less rigid the location of deposits of information become. There probably really are distinct records at lower nonphysical levels and as you go up they become more and more like raw consciousness.
