Since its introduction, Microsoft’s second generation Xbox 360 has had nary a stand-alone HDD option excluding the company’s proprietary 250GB drive , priced at a spendy $130 — this despite those occasional limited edition consoles packing a big 320GBs of space. That’s soon to switch, however, as Major Nelson’s announced a brand new 320GB HDD for the 360, set to be available this month. Possibly in an try and sweeten the deal, this platter maintains the 250GB’s $130 cost of adoption, and is derived pre-loaded with Lego Star Wars III: The Clone Wars (sadly though, no Lego love for Saudi Arabia, the EUA, Slovakia or Japan, where the sport won’t be available). Notably, as opposed to dropping the 250GB drive’s price, it’s now curiously absent from the Xbox website (and we can’t hold our breath anticipating it to pop up again either). Nothing like a very good ol’ fashioned pricing premium for official Xbox storage , right?
