As much as I would like to play with this new Windows 8 feature (Storage Spaces) it does not look like it was release in the Windows 8 developer preview. But it does not look like we’ll have to wait long to see it and play with it as it is supposed to be part of the Windows 8 public Beta, which is due out late February 2012 as per toms hardware:

10TB limit? I already have more than that now on my media server.
Strange that a next-gen technology like that would have such a modest limit by today's standards.

There's no 10TB limit. It's just the logical size chosen for the example. From the MSDN post:
"...subject to its maximum logical size of 10TB. If needed, you can certainly also increase the maximum logical size of a space."
