REWIND tells the drive to position the media at the beginning of the currently active partition. Before rewinding, the
drive writes any buffered data to tape and appends an EOD marker.
Immed: When this bit is set, the drive writes any remaining buffered data followed by an EOD marker to tape. It then
returns status to the Host before beginning the actual rewind operation. If the Immediate bit is not set, status will be
returned after the rewind has completed.
