I don’t personally use tape, but I get most of my stuff from eBay. Tape drives are surprising expensive, even LTO-6 is going to run you a few hundred. But you still can’t beat the density and longevity.

Yeah after looking at the price of a drive, I agree it doesn’t seem necessary at the level of data I have.
