The present disclosure includes systems and methods relating to packed command management for non-volatile storage devices. In some implementations, a device includes: a host controller configured to transfer data between a host memory and a storage device; and a non-transitory medium encoding host software configured to prepare a packed command, which represents more than one command, by loading pointers to memory blocks associated with the packed command into a host memory; wherein the host controller is configured to assert an interrupt to the host software, for at least one command of the packed command, after data transfer for the at least one command is completed, but before data transfer for all of the commands of the packed command is completed.
