2012 FCI cluster basics: Volumes

$

In a SQL 2012 cluster with SAN storage infrastructure, what is best practice or common LUN/volume provisioning scheme? Does the following list make sense?:

NAMEPURPOSEVOLUMESIZELOCATION
QuorumCluster Witness DiskQ:1 GBShared
TempDBTempDBE:TBDLocal
SysSQL SystemF:TBDShared
DataSQL DataG:TBDShared
LogsSQL LogsH:TBDShared

Should it be simplified by putting system and user databases on the same drive?  Any reason to separate them?

Above volume letters would be used on both nodes, right?  I.E, when you're adding the disk resources to each node, can the same letters be used?

If the cluster was multi-instance with two SQL Failover Cluster Instances, then Instance 2 would have to use I:, J:, K:, L:, right? 

Thanks.
