We are currently preparing to upload a large video dataset of approximately 1.6TB. However, the current storage limit on our Hugging Face dataset repository is insufficient to accommodate this data. We previously reached out to [datasets@huggingface.co](mailto:datasets@huggingface.co) but have not received a response.

That’s strange. That should be the correct procedure: the limit is 50GB per file and 300GB per repo, and the procedure is to contact HF if you want to expand via email.

@not-lain @Wauplin Whose jurisdiction is it to limit the capacity of the repo?
