That wouldn't be that tough. Which type of SCSI adapter do you have? It certainly came with some software for setting volume names, in the "rigid disk block (RDB)". I'd suggest the easiest method: re-install a fresh Workbench on your new drive. Then change the drive ID on the switches on the Quantum to an unused ID, and add it to the SCSI cable. (Assuming your SCSI cable has an extra connector on it.) Then re-boot, it should re-boot on the new drive, then mount the old drive and the old volumes. After this, you might want to reset some of the RDB info on the old drive, such as making sure none of those drives are set to boot. If you're the least bit hesitant about this, you can ask more questions here, and I'm sure several of us can walk you through the process.
