Laptop doesn't recognized freshly cloned SSD

it sounds like the clone was not successful. this can happen with some OEM installers where there are recovery partitions or the source disk is not healthy enough to clone. You may need to try some other cloning software (the free apricorn version is pretty limited) that has more options and try a partition to partition clone. If that fails as well the source disk may not be able to be cloned at all.
