S3 allows users to process or analyze the data directly on the AWS cloud, without having to download from ConnectomeDB*. Amazon S3 can be used for cloud-based HCP data processing (Amazon charges users for compute cycles) or as an alternative to Aspera for download of HCP data at no cost to the user. Information on setting up an AWS EC2 instance and processing is available here: EC2 Beginner Startup Advice.
The process of getting access to the HCP AWS S3 bucket housing the data is easy but does require an account on ConnectomeDB and the acceptance of HCP data use terms.
Check out the S1200 Reference Manual for more information on the 7T data itself.
