I want to save data from working ssd belongs to macbook air 2012. Macbook air is trash but I have another one 2012 and I took ssd from broken one and put it to the working one. Blonking folder
So I started the working one with usb drive and now I can access to the ssd with the data but in the utilitys disk I can see only the Device, not the partition as it should be.
After diskutil disk I can see that for external disk I have Apple_HFS_ Macintosh SSD and for the internal ssd I want to save data I have: a long string with numbers and letters.
What could be the problem here?

APFS file system. Update the working macbook to 10.13 with another SSD and then put the one you want to read back in.

The EFI needs an update to be able to boot from APFS. You could connect the machine in Target mode with thunderbolt cable to another Mac that is running 10.13.
