PC shutting down after a new SSD installed.

I tried to turn the PC on and it says: "PLEASE POWER DOWN AND CONNECT THE PCIe POWER CABLE(S) FOR THIS GRAPHICS CARD "

Do you have a graphics card? If so, did you unplug or move the cables for it at all, if so I'd double check they are plugged in properly.

Okay..... that's very strange. I'd pull the drives and try booting

 

Yeah, now I am unable to access BIOS because I tried to turn the PC on and it says: "PLEASE POWER DOWN AND CONNECT THE PCIe POWER CABLE(S) FOR THIS GRAPHICS CARD "

You'll need to plug in the power cables for the GPU. 
Can we get a full pic and the full specs of the build?

It's only connected to the mobo and it looks just fine.

CPU: Intel Core i5-9400F

SSD 0 (C:): TS960GMTS820S

SSD 1: Kingston KC3000 1TB

GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 (the temperature is 30°C)

 

BTW the PC is turned on and working for about 15 minutes now! Huge progress, thanks a lot! I think it was the cables.

Regarding moving the data? Honestly, I'd just not move the data. Both drives are m.2 and should be basically as fast as you need.
If you're out of space, the best option would be to use steam to uninstall a couple big games (your saves *should* be safe in the steam cloud) and install them on the new drive
