Dear,  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I've registered the mail list.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm studying MNE-python. By data\_path=op.join(mne.datasets.sample.data\_path(),'MEG','sample','sample\_audvis\_raw.fif'), I want to download the dataset. However, several times I only downloaded 1.53 Gb (full dataset is 1.54Gb). When I continued to download the left 0.01Gb, It doesn't work. In the mne\_data folder, it's MNE-sample-data-processed.tar.gz.part. How do I fix it ? Are there other methods to download the datasets related to MNE-python? Thank you very much!  
Best regards,  
Wenhai Zhang

Most datasets are now stored on [osf.io](http://osf.io) \<[https://osf.io/rxvq7/](https://osf.io/rxvq7/)\>. You can  
download the sample dataset manually, extract it, and give the path to the  
MNE-sample-data directory with something like:

mne.datasets.sample.data\_path('/home/larsoner/mne\_data')
