A data storage device includes a command analysis system that analyzes one or more received commands to determine whether a garbage collection process associated with the one or more received commands should be executed or paused. The command analysis system determines the garbage collection process should be paused when one or more command parameters associated with the received command indicate that the command is an unmap command and is sequential with a previously received unmap command. The garbage collection process is paused until a non-sequential command is received or until an operating state of the data storage device indicates that the garbage collection process should be resumed.
