I was having issues in booting my macbook pro (mid 2012), It was booting sometimes, Sometimes it won't boot and empty folder with question mark in it appears.
So i bought a lexar ns100 512gb SSD. SSD was not formating or booting when installed in mbp internally, But when i use it through USB dock it is booting and formating.
Does anyone know how can i use ssd internally installed
You most likely have a defective internal hard drive cable which is extremely common on the 13" MBPro (mid-2012) model, but other models can also be affected. Try replacing the internal hard drive cable. This cable could have been the problem with your original hard drive as well.

All the tell tale signs of a faulty SATA cable:

Thanks I replaced cable and it is working fine now.
Macbook won't boot from internal ssd drive, booting from usb.
