Techniques for improved copy on write functionality within an SSD are disclosed. In some embodiments, the techniques may be realized as a method for providing improved copy on write functionality within an SSD including providing, in memory of a device, an indirection data structure. The data structure may include a master entry for cloned data, the master entry having a reference to one or more indexes and a clone entry for the cloned data, the cloned entry having at least one of: a reference to a master index, a reference to a next index, and a value indicating an end of a data structure. The techniques may include traversing, using a computer processor, one or more copies of the cloned data using one or more of the references.
