Abstract
The present disclosure generally relates to an efficient manner of fetching data for write commands. The data can be fetched prior to classification, which is a fetch before mode. The data can alternatively be fetched after classification, which is a fetch after mode. When the data is fetched after classification, the write commands are aggregated until sufficient data associated with any command is split between memory devices. When in fetch before mode, the data should properly align such that data associated with any command is not split between memory devices. Efficiently toggling between the fetch before and fetch after modes will shape how writes are performed without impacting latency and bandwidth without significantly increasing write buffer memory size.
