   I think there are now no files whatsoever on either drive, after a "dd   
   accident".   
      
   There is no point blaming the UEFI for something, if   
   the drives are actually empty.   
      
   Using a LiveCD to boot the computer, I would examine the   
   disks for "signs of life". The "gnome-disks" program   
   can show whether partitions are present. If the storage   
   devices are both blank, that's the answer, they're both blank.
