Upgrading Single-Controller to Dual-Controller System

it can be upgraded into a Dual-Controller configuration by adding another controller
module and firmware upgrade (see software manual). If the model name is
designated with a “G”, it is not upgradeable to a Dual-Controller configuration.
For details, please contact your vendor for details.
