Norton Ghost (see http://www.symantec.com/sabu/ghost/), or CtoD, among others, are disk imager programs that will make an exact image of your hard disk to another drive - notably, but not limited to CDR and CDRW drives. I've only read about them. I normally install some level of DOS and use XCOPY/R/I/C/H/K/E/Y - or as many of the modifiers as that level of XCOPY will take. Basically, like a "DISKCOPY" for large capacity drives. Some people with a distributed (Physically separated, in case of disaster) network schedule this sort of software to make a "complete" backup to another drive. This drive (or complete system) is then an instant replacement for the backed up system. From CD, boot from floppy, (or directly from CD if the BIOS will accept it) and Ghost back to the repaired/replaced system.
