An apparatus for use with a plurality of command submission queues of a plurality of processor nodes, comprising: a solid-state storage drive including nonvolatile storage having a plurality of storage regions of storage space, transfer buffer storage having sequential write stream buffer partitions, and a storage controller having a common command queue, said controller configured to: queue a plurality of write commands from the plurality of command submission queues in the common command queue; and execute write commands queued in the common command queue; wherein the controller has sequential write stream identification logic which includes sequential write stream detection logic, transfer buffer partition write stream data aggregation logic, and sequential write stream aggregation logic, the write stream detection logic is configured to: detect first and second sequential write streams in the write commands, wherein sequential write streams are arranged in a single submission queue, and identify the detected first and second sequential write streams as first and second identified sequential write streams, respectively, as a function of characteristics of the first and second detected sequential write streams including a write velocity characteristic comprising measuring the rate at which the sequential write streams are updated or overwritten in the storage regions; the sequential write stream aggregation logic is configured to: write write data of commands being executed into different sequential write stream regions of the solid-state storage as a function of the write stream identifying, including aggregating write data of the first identified sequential write stream in a first sequential write stream storage region of the solid-state storage, and aggregating write data of the second identified sequential write stream in a second sequential write stream storage region of the solid-state storage; and the transfer buffer partition write stream data logic is configured to: write write data of commands being executed into different sequential write stream buffer partitions of the transfer buffer storage as a function of the write stream identifying by the sequential write stream identification logic, including aggregating write data of the first identified sequential write stream in a first sequential write stream buffer partition of the transfer buffer storage, and aggregating write data of the second identified sequential write stream in a second sequential write stream buffer partition of the transfer buffer storage. queue a plurality of write commands from the plurality of command submission queues in the common command queue;
