Q: Hard disk failure

I downloaded the audacity audio app and was using it to process an MP3. At the end of processing, the app hung and the computer froze. I used the power button to shut down. On restart, the computer displayed the? Folder icon. I booted into Internet recovery mode. My 500 GB disk only registers as 1.4 GB.  Disk utility is unable to verify or repair or erase the disk.  In terminal, I was able to verify the disc. In trying to use terminal to repair the disk, I received an error message saying the disc would not unmount. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
