SQL Server SAN Upgrade

$

Hello,

I am using SQL Server 2012 SE in a 2 node cluster and planning to upgrade the underlying SAN. I have backed up all SQL Server databases. created login script and scripted out all agent jobs. Also presented the new SAN LUNS including the quorum to the cluster. The old drives are J for Data, K for Logs, L for Temp data and Logs, M for backups, N for quorum and the new SAN luns are P data, Q quorum, X logs,Y backups and Z temp data and logs. At the time of cluster installation few years back the cluster used J as the root drive and rest of them as shown above, hence Master, Model,msdb are sitting in J:\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\. Also I have filestream configured.

My question is would detach and attach work for the SAN upgrade? I want to detach all  user databases that are sitting in J:\Data and K:\ Logs to P:\Data and X:\Logs, Move the tempdb from L: to Z: through alter statements  similarly master,model,msdb databases through alter statements from J:\ to P:\ ?

If so how do I use the new Quorum drive as the actual quorum and Filestream?

Thanks a ton for your inputs in advance.
