Having heard all of the audios and read many of the Ace/Benny NAs, my personal preference is:

S26 → Lost Stories → New Adventures → Benny's → Main Range → Gallifrey

The "Genesys" and "Prisoner's Dilemma" mindwipes clean things up quite nicely. I'm against placing Big Finish Ace between "Timewyrm" and "Love and War," as that creates all sorts of contradictions; like Ace's maturity, romantic life, and awareness of her age. It's probably best to separate the Main Range from the New Adventures with one of the mindwipes (I prefer the "Prisoner's Dilemma" one).

I'm not sure about the Past Doctor Adventures. I would place them either before "Genesys" or after "Prisoner's Dilemma." They are loosely connected to early Main Range Seven, but I believe "The Genocide Machine" is the only audio to be referred to as a past event in those novels. "Dust Breeding" refers to one of the books, but as I place the MR after the NAs that doesn't really matter.

Well, by "Gallifrey" Ace has retained her New Adventures memories. We don't know how, but we know her memories were uploaded to the Matrix in "Lungbarrow." This is entirely speculation, but perhaps that could be the source of her returning memories.
