This is SMART error which simply means that the drive is failing. Backup your data, if any and replace the drive with a new one.

So that means I cannot install macOs Catalina on the drive and need to buy a new drive for that?
 
Hi, everything works fine, there is only one big problem..

my wifi connection is not working. How can I fix this?

edit: maybe better to say that there is not even a function related to wifi or internet cable.

Also noticed that:
  1. Sound is not working
  2. Mousepad (the one build in the laptop) is not working
Another question, how can i install that i’ t will start the macOS installation without going to boot everytime again?

Off-topic. Create a separate thread for the rest of the issues.
