Need to see the disk management screenshot of the HDD in question. If it has an NTFS formatted System partition, then it is likely that the computer it won't boot in is set to boot it in UEFI mode. That needs to be changed by disabling secure boot, and then enabling CSM mode.
The move was made years ago and the computers may have had clean or custom installs.
Computer 1: Msinfo32
UEFI
Secure Boot State: off
command prompt results: winload.efi
Computer 2: Msinfo32
Legacy
Secure Boot State: Unsupported
Command prompt result: winload.exe
Do you know a method to check CSM status without opening the BIOS?
How would you move 1 to 2? Switch BIOS to UEFI or UEFI with CSM?
How would you move 2 to 1? Switch BIOS from UEFI to UEFI with CSM or Legacy?
If you still need disk management I'll upload from the respective computers.
The target computer has to be changed to match the original computer. Moving 1 to 2, change 2 to boot in UEFI mode. Moving 2 to 1 you need to enable CSM mode and boot in that mode on computer 1.
You can make a universally bootable hard HDD/SSD by partitioning it with MBR partitioning, have a FAT32 system partitioned marked as active, and universal boot files written to it with the bcdboot command using the /f ALL switch.
