My Toshiba drive failed hard drive/ssd short dst check. Do I need to get another Toshiba mq04abf100 drive or could I replace it with something else? What specs does the replacement drive need to have to work with my laptop?

It is a standard 2.5" SATA HDD

You can use different brand. My suggestion you can take opportunity to upgrade to faster SDD using standard 2.5' SDD's for notebooks such as https://www.samsung.com/au/memory-storage/sata-ssd/870-evo-250gb-sata-3-2-5-ssd-mz-77e250bw/
1TB or 2TB is fine.
Regards.
