I found that there seem to be ~300 samples missing from the metagenomic raw reads on the [ibdmdb.org](http://ibdmdb.org) webpage here: [Metagenomes Raw Files | IBDMDB](https://ibdmdb.org/tunnel/public/HMP2/WGS/1818/rawfiles).

By inspecting the metadata, I found that these were all the samples with external IDs ending in “\_P”, with the Product field labeled as “HiSeq 2x101 Paired Lane.” All the other raw reads do not have an entry in the Product field.

Can you help me understand how I might be able to download these samples?
