Enhanced read-ahead capabilities for storage devices are disclosed herein. In an implementation, data for a given write operation may be written to storage such that the location of the next write is stored with the data. Later, when the data is being read from storage, other data may be pre-fetched from the location of the next write that was written with the data. If the next location is the target of a subsequent read operation, the other data may be returned to the host immediately, since it will have already been read from the location where it was stored, thereby speeding-up the subsequent read operation.
