Well, you can, but that is not what he said. He or they cloned the HD "somehow", and *now* the disk is in another continent.
No, Carlos, that is *not* what he said.
He did.
«I do not have the disk in my possession (it's on a different continent).»
So at least now the disk is not in his possession, wherever it was before.
There is absolutely no chronological order implied by his posts. Indeed, quite the opposite is suggested: The drive is in a computer on another continent. The person running that computer asks for help in cloning the drive. Roger communicates instructions on how to do that to the other person, who then performs the cloning operation. You have assumed throughout that Roger initially said "*now* the drive is on another continent", when he did not.
