I'll repeat what I have said before. Best performing I have seen is Tolis BRU PE software, with a standalone LTO 6 drive (I tested the HP) connected via SAS with an ATTO HBA. Has full verify of every file on the backup. Creates backups that can be restored on Mac OS, Windows and Linux. The software to restore backups from tape is free, only need a license for the backup stage.
BRU PE can use LTFS or direct write to tape. Same price as Pre-Roll Post from Imagine Products. Pre-Roll Post ONLY works with LTFS iirc.
LTFS is a last resort, as it significantly slows the performance of LTO, and when accessed directly via the Finder will generally lock up and crash your Mac. I found Pre-Roll Post to be the slowest of the software I tested (BRU PE, Retrospect and Pre-Roll Post).

Plus Avid AAF archive and restore of all related content and next version will do the same with an Avid bin.
The key for use was tge LTFS file system. Tapes mount on our network like drives and we can search and restore files at finder level.
