The Xbox 360 hardware division at Microsoft has announced a new 320 GB hard drive for the home console, which comes complete with a download code for LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars.

Microsoft has called the new device the Media Hard Drive, suggesting that it is big enough to satisfy the needs of those console owners who own and consume a lot of television or movies via their Xbox 360's in addition to their video games.

The company says players will be able to store 95 full games, 40 high definition movies, 975 episodes for TV shows and 200 normal definition movies.

The hard drive will be compatible with all the Xbox 360 S models and the download code will not be offered in Japan, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Slovakia.

Those who plan to get the hard drive will need to pay an estimated 129.99 dollars in the United States and Microsoft says that prices for the rest of the world will be announced soon.
