Swapping boot SSD problems.

Hello. I have an m17x r4 alienware laptop. It is currently set to having a 120 gb SSD as it's boot drive (with windows 10 installed on it). I have a secondary 750gb HDD. What I am ultimately trying to do is swap the smaller 120 gb SSD with a larger 500 gb SSD. But first I want to clone my drive so I dont have to manually install everything. So I tried swapping out my HDD with the new SSD, but I get the following error:

"Check cable connection!

PXE-MOF : Exiting Intel PXE ROM.

No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key"

When I put my HDD back in, things work fine. Not entirely sure what is happening here. Would anyone be able to help me? Or explain to me a better way to do what I am trying to do, if there is one. As I said above, all I want to do is upgrade my 120gb ssd with a 500gb ssd.

Thank you,

-Adam
