Te'ina טעינה


Explanation:
However, the official (The Academy of the Hebrew Language's) version is:
Lit'on לטעון - to download
Te'ina טעינה - download (n).
These are not merely academic terms - they are used in hi-tech.

Moreover, "Horada" is considered slang by the Rav-Milim dictionary, and it's actual meaning is "lowering from a higher place to a lower one".

To download files is "lit'on kvatzim" ("לטעון קבצים").
