I bought a thunderbolt to FC adapter; works perfectly on Mac and Linux.

I mention LTO 4 because you can today, buy multi decades old LTO-4. Brand new. So in multiple decades from now, I assume you’ll be able to find LTO-7 or 8; brand new. A drive might cost a little more to obtain, but given the plethora of used multi decades old lto currently out there, it seems reasonable to expect that in a recovery scenario you’ll be able to shell out for the right drive.

But yes for most HDDs or the cloud are better. No need to get spicy about it.
