I think that repository is more something "to rely on".

It might keep a history of things or you store it for safekeeping.

Its more like a database.

While a storage is just memory where you (temporarily) park something without handing over responsibility or any special guarantees other than that you (the thread or class storing it) keep ownership and can retrieve the stored object at a later time.
