DownloadingNGC 1333 Calibration Data

I have been through the first 50 Items On The PixInsight Path.   I started NGC 1333 Workflow and downloaded both required data files.  
While I was going through the first video, Check the Data, I ran into an issue.  When I checked the Darks on my PixInsight I choose to Blink only the 600 sec Darks.  Worked fine but.....  When I went back to look at my Dark File folder I only found the 600 sec Darks, the 30 second ones were gone.   I could not find them anywhere.  So I eliminated any files that involved Darks and re-downloaded the Calibration Data.  Lo and behold only the 600 sec Darks seemed to be downloaded in a file named 20221011_30s_600s_minus30.  despite multiple tries and even using a different computer it only downloaded the 600s Darks.

Can anyone suggest what I might be doing wrong as I need the 30s Darks to continue the Workflow.  I suspect it is "operator error" but this operator is clueless!

    You are doing nothing wrong. When you get to the video on setting up the data- you will see that I end up using the biases to calibrate the flats (since I have so many more of them).

    So everything is OK... you can continue!
