| [ 9. A circuit-based method comprising:
in response to a command that prompts execution of circuit-based logic to retrieve data associated with mirrored data of a
data storage medium in a data storage device, and to an indication of whether the retrieve command is associated with synchronized
or unsynchronized data, using the circuit-based logic to facilitate
inserting at least one retrieve sub-request from the retrieve command into a scheduling pool;
scheduling one of the retrieve sub-requests; and
removing remaining sub-requests from the scheduling pool.]
