I have a request to do something that I am not sure is possible. The request is to create a website that will backup someones PC, either through the internet or they would download a small software package that will back up their pc and send the backup to a remote server, kind of like Carbonite or Iron Mountain. Does anyone have any idea where I need to start with this or look into how to code for this.

I think you should look into the existing HDD image creators (quick googling gave me XXClone, but you may need something else).

You basically need to

1. create an image of the entire PC's storage (i.e. all logical disks)
2. upload the image to the internet area

A relatively small program may perform the tasks 1 and 2 for you, provided that you bundle it with an existing image creator.
