And by laptop bios, do you mean to boot it?  Without uefi on it the
bios will not see it unless there is some status menu showing what is
connected to usb.

Boot the laptop via a liveusb (if you can get that to boot) and see if
that will see it (I am guessing not).

Collect a lspci and a lsusb -v and a dmesg

Generally outside of being on some host that blacklisted usb-storage I
have seen USB storage generally just work.
