A method and system are disclosed for storing client data objects in a deduplicated storage system. Deduplicated data may be stored in a plurality of physical data blocks. A content map layer can provide a mapping between the physical data blocks to logical map objects associated with the client data objects. The deduplicated data may be mapped to logical data blocks that comprise the client data objects.
