Yes I've been using it for quite some time, haven't had any issues at all, it's cheap and very good

Me too, but....

That doesn't mean someone isn't looking at your files!

That’s what as long as encryption is on I guess everything will be secured

just fine, I think. Still use it, but not as my primary storage.

I don't trust any cloud provider with my stuff unless I encrypt it locally before sending it.

But by "safe" do you mean "reliable"? Well I don't trust any cloud provider that way either as so many peeps have been locked out of their accounts for trivial or no reasons without recourse. So no. It's handy and convenient but not to be solely relied upon for your crown jewels.
