2011 iMac hardrive failure, options?


my brother's imac desktop hard drive has failed. cleaned drive after seeing unfixable error. not able reinstall osx due error. thinking buying , installing new ssd. have built own pc , worked apple devices, don't think hardware issue, don't have original osx disk, , there isn't apple store within 3 hours of home. imac automatically partition space osx when detects fresh drive , able download osx via wifi?

info appreciated, thanks!
