HDD buying Advice - Budget 3.5K

[Nerevarine]

I need a USB 3.0 capable HDD (preferably 500 GB under Rs 3.5k).. I have shortlisted
Toshiba Canvio Basic 500 GB External Hard Disk - Toshiba: Flipkart.com
and
Sony HD-EG5/P 2.5 inch 500 GB External Hard Drive - Sony: Flipkart.com
Which among these is better ? Are there any better drives than these ?
Please consider warranty as an important point as I hate failing HDD

WD Elements Portable 2.5 inch 500 GB External Hard Disk - WD: Flipkart.com

Seagate Backup Plus 500 GB USB 3.0 Portable Drive - Seagate: Flipkart.com

Get either of two.. WD is preferable for its cheaper & better RMA
But seagate one is a bit faster

NOPE NOPE NOPE
DONT get the WD Elements. Ive been using it for a while and eventually the USB port gets loose. The USB port is SOLDERED to the PCB so there is NOTHING to get it to work if it comes off. I have to press the PCB everytime I use the HDD, still collecting money to get a new one.

Its quite a common problem, I looked it up. No solution.
