It stores it away for later retrieval. It allows it to be searched in various ways more convenient than just reading it from beginning to end every time. We're just not used to file systems being very clever. New ones like ZFS and ext4 are getting very clever but the creators still seem to have missed out a feature I consider should have been implemented long before the fancy things I see now.
