Corrupt Harddrive Macbook Pro 2008

MacBook Pro 15 in 2008

OSX El Capitan 10.11.6

Processor 2.4 Ghz intel core 2 Duo

Memory 4 GB

I have been cleaning up the computer.

When I restart, it would shut off 1/2 way through

Tried Booting in Safe mode but same thing happened

Booted in recovery mode

Harddrive failed first aid process

When I went to reinstall OS in recovery mode it states OSX cannot be installed on "Recovery HD"

Any suggestions?

Hello,

Unfortunately it sounds like your Mac’s hard disk has failed and will need to be replaced.
