Each instance acts as an independent (virtual) server. Resources cannot be
shared between instances in a cluster.

So yes, you need a different set of disks for each instance.

We are looking to implement an Active / Passive cluster in our environment
and some of the instructions seem a little vague. We have a server with 5
instances of SQL running for different applications. We want to build the
new cluster to support those instances. Right now, we have drives for
Data,
Index, Logs, TempDB, Backups, etc that are shared amongst those 5
instances.
From what I am reading in the SQL Clustering doc is that each instance
must
be on its own Cluster group. Does this mean that I need to have 5
different
"disks" for each instance that I currently have?
