Abstract: The present invention relates to a data storage system and specific command execution method thereof, which is applied to a memory storage system. When a memory manager receives an command from a host system, it can judge whether the command is a normal command or a specific command. If the command is the specific command, read a first logic sector address, an accessible data length and a second logic sector address in the specific command, and duplicate the first logic sector address pointing to the physical storage address of the stored data reading to a memory buffer; and move physical storage address pointing to that from the first logic sector address to the second logic sector address. It can achieve both data reading and data moving by one specific command.
