Why are you doing a transfer instead of reinstalling the OS? Unplug the HDD so it only recognizes the SSD and do a fresh install, plug the HDD back in and bring over the files you want manually after that. SSD and HDD's have different storage sizes and techniques so doing a 1 for 1 transfer won't really get the full use of an SSD. If you need to do cloning for backup reasons or something I'd use CloneZilla.
