An example of a system includes a plurality of non-volatile memory dies, a memory bus coupled to the plurality of non-volatile memory dies, and one or more control circuits coupled to the plurality of non-volatile memory dies through the memory bus. The one or more control circuits include a plurality of die-specific request queues configured in a one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of non-volatile memory dies. The one or more control circuits are configured to add die-specific atomic requests to individual die-specific request queues of the plurality of die-specific request queues independently of each other in response to die-specific triggering events.
