Mac stuck on restart getting interrogatory icon in the screen, and no boot happening

older Mac Book Air can only run up to Monterey. Once in a while it shows the apple after restart and stops after almost getting through the boot process. But now mostly getting the ? and no boot happening. Also, does not show a disk when I go to "Command R" and reboot in recovery mode. I do have recent backups, but am wondering if I should toss the SSD and get another??
