Abstract: A method and system for maintaining command queue order are disclosed. According to certain embodiments, commands are read from a host, storing command queue IDs in an array that will keep the queue IDs in order. After having the queue IDs stored in the array, the commands are processed in the data storage device (DSD). After processing, the commands are provided to a completion order adjustment module that will order the commands in queue ID order for sequential commands to be returned to the host. In certain embodiments, for a sequential command, other commands of the same sequence are searched for the array and ordered with the sequential command. If a particular command of the sequence is not found, the completion order adjustment module will wait to transfer the sequence until each command of the sequence is found. For commands not part of a sequence, these commands are transferred to the host.
