iPod classic, Other OS, can get into disk mode
The Sad Face icon is a pretty good indication of a hardware failure, usually with the Hard Drive. You'll likely need to have the iPod serviced or replaced either by Apple or a third party service center.
Here is Apple's pricing:

Google for "iPod hard drive replacement" for third party repair centers, which tend to be a bit cheaper than the Apple route.
