Abstract
Methods and systems associated with re-transferring data that was unsuccessfully transmitted to a host are described. According to one embodiment method includes receiving a first command to transfer data to a host, wherein the data is arranged in blocks. The data is transferred to the host. When an unsuccessful status is received from the host indicating a transmission error occurred for the first command, a block being transferred when the transmission error occurred is identified. The data in the identified block is re-transferred to the host without re-transferring successfully transferred blocks.
