<br />
Aspera is a faster download tool than ftp/sftp. If you download large sequencing data (e.g. 1000 Genomes Project data), you should consider use Aspera.<br />
<br />
== Obtain Aspera Connect ==<br />
<br />
Go to [http://downloads.asperasoft.com/en/downloads/8?list Aspera web site], and download a suitable version of Aspera Connect according to your operation system.<br />
<br />
== Download from 1000 Genome Server == <br />
<br />
An example to download from NCBI server:<br />
<br />
~/.aspera/connect/bin/ascp -i ~/asperaweb_id_dsa.putty -QTr -l600m anonftp@ftp-trace.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov:/1000genomes/ftp/sequence.index .<br />
<br />
Several notes:<br />
<br />
1. use ascp under your directory: ~/.aspera/connect/bin/ascp<br />
<br />
2. use the private key under your directory. e.g. ~/.aspera/connect/etc/aspera_id_dsa.putty<br />
<br />
3. use correct FPT account such as **anonftp@ftp-trace.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov**<br />
<br />
<br />
Refer to the following [ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1000genomes/README.Aspera_Users link] for more details.</div>Zhanxw
