If you merge the three versions of DataSet 9 that are found so far:

DataSet%209.zip : https://github.com/yung-megafone/Epstein-Files Data Set 9.tar.xz : https://archive.org/details/data-set-9.tar.xz dataset9-more-complete.tar.zst : https://github.com/yung-megafone/Epstein-Files

You will end up with 531,282 IMAGES files (PDF). You would think that there is a lot missing, however, the partially corrupted DataSet%209.zip gives us a DAT and OPT file to see what files remain.

The DAT file reveals there are only 531,307 IMAGES files (PDF) supposed to be in the archive. Which means only 25 PDF files are actually missing.

You'd notice that 25 PDF files couldn't possibly be the remaining 80-ish GB that remains of the original DataSet 9, but the DAT file doesn't reveal how many NATIVES there were.

NATIVES are media files like videos and audio. You can see an example if you have a full DataSet 10. But from DataSet 10 it reveals to us that all NATIVES have a placeholder as a PDF which is always 4670 bytes.

So by searching all files that are that exact size, it reveals there are about 135 NATIVES (media files) that are missing, which would be the rest of the 80 GB that is missing.

I have listed below what IMAGES (PDF) and NATIVES (media) files are missing, such that it is easy to coordinate to track down the remaining files that we need for a complete DataSet 9.

(Though the remaining PDFs could be placeholder for up to 25 more natives, which would have to be checked when finding them).

One thing you could try is looking at the file extensions from DataSet 10’s Natives so you have fewer to guess from.

The rest of the natives still could be that large but I’ll double check if there are other placeholders.

Who are we?

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

We are one. We are legion. And we're trying really hard not to forget.
