The FCRA prohibits going back more than 7 years. This however can be superseded by state law, so if SC says you can go 10, then in SC, you can go 10!

Plus they charge per county searched. So if you lived in Berkeley when you were arrested and now live in Dorchester, but your employer to be only searches Dorchester cause that's where you live, you may luck out if they do not check Berkeley as well.

I would think if they searched SLED it would show everything for the state up to 7 years though.

South Carolina law does not specify a limit on how far back employers can look in background checks. However, the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) recommends a maximum of seven years for most background checks. Employers should also adhere to federal and state laws regarding the use of background check information for employment decisions.
