Sure. I know. Big SATA drives are cheap over

1.5T for 110 EURO or somesuch. I just happen to own a LTO3 and
enough tapes already, so the economics are not the issue. Just need
to have a proper piece of open source backup software that runs on
FreeBSD.

It will span multiple tapes.
dump is non-portable. In general, you can only restore to the same
kind of system as you write to.
