A method for optimizing storage device bus and resource utilization using host realignment includes detecting a first write command for writing data from a host device to a storage device. The method further includes determining whether the first write command includes addressing that is misaligned with regard to storage device resource assignments. The method further includes, in response to determining that the first write command includes addressing that is misaligned with respect to storage device resource assignments: determining an amount to shift the misaligned addressing to align the addressing with the storage device resource assignments; and notifying the host device of the misaligned addressing. The method further includes performing a host realignment according to the amount determined to shift the misaligned addressing.
