What was most disconcerting with my Hackintosh experience was lack of stability. Although I had turned automatic software updates off, the version I was running stopped working with Apples cloud services (iMessages, Backup, ...). I also experienced way too many crashes and apps that ran on vanilla OSX would not work on the Hackintosh version. I hope your experience would be far better than mine.
BRU has many features and allows you to perform, full, partial or incremental backups and restores. It allows you to tune its parameters (buffer sizes, read/write blocks, etc.) to get the best transfer rates out of your controller and LTO drive. It also has a reasonable UI (not as elegant as Apple's) to navigate volumes and archives. I have been using it to backup my 12TB RAID and make archival backups of my RED mini-mags after shoots.
BRU is primarily a Mac app (they also support Linux), if I were you, I would ask users on reduser.net or Tolis Group if Hackintosh is supported and viable. They do offer a free trial for their software - you should try before you buy.
Best,
Marco
