2 node cluster downgrade to 1 node cluster question

First of all I want to say that I'm new to Windows Failover Clustering so forgive my inexperience. We had a 2 node cluster (Server 2008 R2 SP1 & SQL 2008 SP1) with SAN attached storage. The DBA's decided they didn't need the 2nd node of the cluster anymore, so they evicted it. I have evicted the unneeded node from the Windows cluster successfully. The thing is, this server has to be moved to a new SAN at a new data center. I've been told by the storage team that when the server gets moved to the new location they will not be providing LUNS for the Quorum or MSDTC. So my question is can we move the Quorum and MSDTC on the same local drive ? The server only has a C: drive. Is this possible or should we just reload the server without Failover Clustering and have the DBA's re-install SQL ?

Thank you,

David
