Sorry for butting in...

 I'd say it should've read "USB 2.0" very clearly, somewhere on that
USB-thingie.

 Sometimes you can tell whether there is some caching going on by simply
moving everything away from the mounted drive (i.e. move Explorer's viewing
off the drive) and then submit an "Right click->Eject" on the drive letter.

If the Eject makes the USB-drive-led flicker, there was something cached.
