My Dell XPS does not see my cloned drive

I am using windows 10.  I have successfully cloned my Dell XPS hard drive to a WD 2 TB SSD external drive connected via a USB 3 cable.  I verified that it works by successfully booting a Dell Lattitude OS windows 10 from this drive. 

On the Lattitude I was able to select a USB drive naming the WD slim drive etc.  On the XPS the USB drive is not an option.  I simply dont see this drive.  I do the internal hard drive.  I called Dell, they said that this is because the XPS is a consumer device and the Lattitude is not.   I am having a hard time accepting this.  I did look at the boot sequence and I dont see USB as an option.

    Please connect the cloned drive internally.

    Can you advise as to how to connect the drive internally.  I have not opened this laptop yet.  Thanks

    The goal would be to copy the cloned drive back onto the machine.  How would this be done if connected internally?

    Why do you need to copy the cloned drive back onto the machine? You could replace your current drive with the cloned one directly.
