ZWO CCD drivers question

In the selection for ZWO drivers I can see a ZWO CCD driver (indi_asi_ccd) and then ZWO Camera 1, 2 & 3 which all call indi_asi_single_ccd. What is the difference and where should I use the camera 1 to 3 drivers?

+ ZWO CCD: One driver to connect to multiple cameras at the same time.
+ ZWO Camera 1 & 2: Connect one driver per camera. This was added recently since using the ZWO CCD driver sometimes there is conflict between two or more cameras while downloading.

So if I have a guide camera it would be preferable to use first one for main camera and use Camera 1/2/3 for guide?
