It really depends on what you're doing but usually you should use the
non-rewinding device nodes to avoid having the drive rewind
unexpectedly. When using Backup software like Bacula, you actually MUST
use the non-rewinding device, otherwise you get into trouble (the
software does its own rewinds and doesn't expect the tape to be rewound
without it having done it itself).
