Back up your drive using the software to a third location (I used a different drive)
Create a bootable USB (from Acronis)
Install your SSD in place of your current drive
Boot from your USB
Restore your image.
Is your current drive smaller?
It can take a while to do the backup, and then to do the restore.
But, yeah, getting your brother to do it is probably easier.
Check the price difference between 250 and 500gb drives too. It might not be that big.
I paid about £77 from Amazon for my 500GB one.
