Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder. If disk utility could not restore input output error you need to reformat your startup volume, then you must boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger or Leopard.)2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.

It's a MacBook Pro 13" Mid 2009. After it failed to boot up past the grey screen, I took it to the Genius bar at my local Apple output error store, and the guy told me the hard drive had definitely died. Thank god I'd done a Time Machine back-up recently! I did a bit of research, (I'm not very knowlagable about computers), and eventually chose a Crucial m4 SSD, 256GB, 2.5" SATA 6Gb/s to replace it with. Crucial claim this is definitely compatable. All seemed fine as I put it in, but when I came to install the OS, I got a bit stuck... There was no 'destination' to install to, so I input output error went to Disk Utility. The new hard drive shows up, but there is no option to "Repair Disk" under First Aid (it's greyed out) and when I tried to erase and re-format the hard drive - I selected Mac OS Extended (Journaled) - it comes up with an error message: "Disk Erase failed with the error: Input/output error" I've Googled the heck out of this, and although others have been asking similar questions, I still can't make sense of it all. Am I missing something obvious? If anyone has any pointers that would be so great. Thanks in advance guys :) Answer this question I have this problem too Subscribed to new answers Is this a good question?
