Could you build this?

No Disk imaging and system backup software requires low-level kernel drivers, Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) integrations, file system internals, and bootable environment creation.

What it would actually take: A true backup solution like AOMEI requires C/C++ systems engineering interfacing directly with Windows Kernel APIs, low-level disk I/O, NTFS/FAT/ext4 file system drivers, and Volume Shadow Copy (VSS) for live snapshotting. It also necessitates building custom WinPE and Linux bootable media recovery environments, partition resizing engines, and sector-by-sector cloning algorithms. This demands deep OS internals expertise, driver signing, and rigorous hardware compatibility testing that cannot be vibe-coded.
