random question - do those older machines support a UEFI OS install?

I'm a bit wary from a security standpoint of going back to MBR.

UEFI's security benefits are dubious anyway unless you're using your own Secure Boot keys; else, you're likely relying on Microsoft's signing key.

No, they are too old to have UEFI at all.
