I just got the adf files converted onto my pc. I opened them up in emulation and then copied them over into separate foldes to represent each floppy.


Why ? Why don't you just use the ADFs with WinUAE ?

If I put them on a cd would it be possible to boot my 4000 from a cd or load the OS from the files on the cd?


No, an Amiga can only boot from floppy disks. The only exception is if you have a CyberstormPPC accelerator and a SCSI CD drive connected to the PPC's SCSI bus. Then you can tell it to boot from CD in the PPC's firmware menu.

I have been thinking of making a backup of my amiga HD. But curious, how can i read my 36GB SCSI-HD (PFS3) with PC on WinUAE?


Just read this thread from the top, it's all in here. Of course you need a SCSI controller in your PC.
