Answer: B

Explanation:

HPE Synergy allows scaling of logical enclosures up to 5 frames. Given the current setup of three frames fully populated with HPE Synergy 480 Gen10 Plus modules and other specified components, the customer can add another frame to the existing logical enclosure. This flexibility in scaling ensures that the logical enclosure can be expanded without the need to create a new logical enclosure, provided that the necessary interconnect modules are in place.
