Hi Cat, I went to Amazon and did a search for 'patriot usb 3.0'. It's indeed around 1$/1GB but I was so fed-up with the slow to very slow speed of the ones I've that the price didn't bother me. One need to buy these only once. I'm happy now. But I had to believe this German magazine first. But because it's a Mac one I believed them. And I just wanted to share this info. You don't buy a Pinto to do Nascar isn't it?
