 I have a fibre line as well as 10 TB of sapce I can
  devote to freenet. Would be swell if I could devote 10TB rather than the max 
 of 300GB

You can. The first time wizard won't set it larger than 300GB, but you can 
change it later. Go to the Configuration menu, then Core settings. But be 
warned that it will use more memory if you have a larger datastore, 
approximately half a meg of RAM for each gigabyte of disk if I remember 
correctly.

I wonder if all of Freenet can fit in those 10TB :D. Or if the size of
Freenet can be mathematically estimated from a few random node samples.

 Freenet can be mathematically estimated from a few random node
 samples.

Handwaving, since nodes are supposed to specialize over a specific key
range, and assuming keys are equally distributed across the entire
key-space, perhaps your 3% datastore utilization is a result of a small
freenet. Ie. a node can only store (specialized-key-range-percentage *
sizeof-freenet) gigs of data. If that's the case, the only way to
increase your datastore would be to broaden your key-storing-range, but
I don't think that would help, since freenet routing currently requires
key specialization.

Further handwaving, I wonder if it would be such a bad idea to support
supernodes, with broader key specializations. For example, would it be
a bad thing for a node to store the entire freenet?

I think he is saying his node won't create a datastore larger than 300GB...
