Your laptop and desktop undoubtedly have different hardware, so the OS installed in the desktop is not going to match the hardware in the laptop -- so what you do is not going to work. You can't install a drive in one PC and expect it to then work in a very different PC.

Since the error you got nearly always is due to a failed drive, if you replace that drive, then you should be able to get the PC working again -- but there are no guarantees. So, be sure to buy the SSD from someplace that will refund your money if it ends up not working out.
