A method includes receiving, at a direct memory access (DMA) controller of a memory device, a first command from a first cache controller coupled to the memory device to prefetch first data from the memory device and sending the prefetched first data, in response to receiving the first command, to a second cache controller coupled to the memory device. The method can further include receiving a second command from a second cache controller coupled to the memory device to prefetch second data from the memory device, and sending the prefetched second data, in response to receiving the second command, to a third cache controller coupled to the memory device.
