why do i need to backup quroum?   
Why should we backup the quorum drive when we can reset the quorum log and 
recreate a new one?

I have always said that you don't need to back it up. It is easy to fix and 
there isn't any data of value in the quorum log that you just have to have.

If your quorum disk bites it, it is easy to create a new LUN, or use MNS, 
start the cluster service with the /fixquorum switch, get the new quorum up 
and running, stop the cluster service, remove the /fixquorum switch, start 
the cluster service back up and away you go.
