  • How old is your HDD? Are you able to boot up livecd and do check the number of disk errors from gnome-disks?

Your HDD has gone bad. I have faced the same error sometime back on Ubuntu 14.04. I had to get my HDD replaced. You can try connecting the HDD to different computer and try to recover important data. In my case I lost all data :(
