Motivation. README.md:227 and examples/zarr_volume_access.py:35 open

s3://vesuvius-challenge-open-data/PHerc0332/volumes/20231201141544-3.240um-70keV-masked.zarr/

That prefix is not in the bucket — .zattrs returns HTTP 404 — because the catalogue publishes that 2023 volume under https://data.aws.ash2txt.org with a samples/ prefix, not under the S3 root. The documented quickstart therefore fails on first run.

Before:

$ curl -sS -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}' https://vesuvius-challenge-open-data.s3.amazonaws.com/PHerc0332/volumes/20231201141544-3.240um-70keV-masked.zarr/.zattrs
404

After — the PHerc0332 volume that is actually in the bucket:

$ curl -sS -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}' https://vesuvius-challenge-open-data.s3.amazonaws.com/PHerc0332/volumes/20251211183505-2.399um-0.2m-78keV-masked.zarr/.zattrs
200
$ curl -sS -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}' https://vesuvius-challenge-open-data.s3.amazonaws.com/PHerc0332/volumes/20251211183505-2.399um-0.2m-78keV-masked.zarr/0/.zarray
200

Two lines changed; same volume family, code otherwise identical. Found while auditing the catalogue against storage (https://github.com/dud8/catalog-lint).

That prefix is not in the bucket (HTTP 404 on .zattrs); the catalogue publishes
that 2023 volume under https://data.aws.ash2txt.org with a samples/ prefix.
The documented quickstart therefore fails on first run.

Switched both to PHerc0332/volumes/20251211183505-2.399um-0.2m-78keV-masked.zarr/,
the PHerc0332 volume actually in the bucket (HTTP 200 on .zattrs and 0/.zarray).
