Clone MBP hard drive for Mac Pro

I am attempting to clone my MBP (i5 Yosemite) hard drive to another hard drive for an internal bay on my Mac Pro (Intel dual quad). It seems as if my clone attempt went great however, when I boot my clone on my Mac Pro I don't have options to a mouse or keyboard. I tried unplugging the keyboard, and mouse then replugging but got no response. I also tried to reboot to see if it would recognize but got nothing. Other than that it seems as if everything booted, but all I can do is stare at the desktop. Its like the USBs are not reading or something. Any suggestions? Should I use migration versus clone? What am I missing? I would like to have the exact same image of my laptop on my desktop (not worried about them being in sync once mirrored.


Thanks,

Tim

MacBook Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10.3), Mac Pro Dual Quad intel
