SC180 end of sales?
We currently operate a Scv2080 and are looking to expand another 400TB of usable space. Can someone confirm if SC180 expansion has reached end of sale? Any replacement so far? Thanks!

The SC180 enclosure has not reached End of Sales. Refer to this document: https://downloads.dell.com/Manuals/Common/SC-SupportPolicy-EN.pdf
This was updated in March and shows all equipment not being sold, and its 5 year transition to End of Life.

Got it.
Btw, I noticed that SC180 is a 6Gbps enclosure. Is the SAS connector gonna be a bottle neck, even for HDDs, when all 84 spaces are filled?

No, the back end on the SC2080 is 6Gbps also.
