Legend

Overview

The Legend board family contains three revisions: 25hdd, 25ssd, and 35.

The Legend 2.5” HDD board (revision 25hdd) can be found in the Seagate FireCuda Gaming Hard Drive, Gaming Drive for Xbox and Gaming Drive for PlayStation devices. A 2.5” drive and two chips are embedded: an ASMedia ASM1153 USB-to-SATA bridge controller and a STM32F070 MCU. The former is handling the USB to HDD I/Os while the latter is dedicated to the LED effects. The two chips are connected together through I2C.

The Legend 2.5” SSD board (revision 25ssd) is found in the Seagate SSD Gaming Drive for Xbox. A Realtek RTS5411S USB hub is embedded and connected to a Phison U17 2.5” SSD, as well as a STM32F070 MCU.

The Legend 3.5” board (revision 35) can be found in the Seagate FireCuda Gaming Hub and Gaming Drive Hub for Xbox devices. A Genesys Logic GL3523-S USB hub is connected to an ASMedia ASM1153 USB-to-SATA bridge controller and a STM32F070 MCU. The two chips are connected together using I2C.

On all boards, the Zephyr port is running on the STM32F070 MCU.

Programming and Debugging

Flashing

The STM32F070cb MCU can be flashed by connecting an external debug probe to the SWD port (on-board 4-pin header). In the default OpenOCD configuration, the ST Link interface is selected. You may need to replace it with the interface of your debug probe.

Once the debug probe is connected to both the Legend board and your host computer, then you can simply run the west flash command to write a firmware image into flash.

Debugging

Please refer to the Flashing section and run the west debug command instead of west flash.
