Inspiron 15 5559 HD replacement

I have an Inspiron 15 5559 with W10 and am trying to change the HD to an SSD.  The SSD is a SATA III.  The startup screen says "No Hard Drive Installed".  Will this laptop accept this drive?  Do I have to go into BIOS to do this?  Thank you for any replies.

If you're installing a 7 mm SSD in place of  a 9.5 mm SSD, you'll need a shim to install the slimmer drive - or the drive won't securely connect to the mainboard.
