MongoDB can also be easily downloaded by visiting the official MongoDB website and accessing the downloads section from http://www.MongoDB.org/downloads. Once there, be sure to download the correct version depending on your OS and CPU (32-bit or 64-bit).
For Windows users, you can opt to download the MSI installer file, which will make the installation much simpler.
