Hello!
As with anything of this nature, MAKE A GOOD BACKUP of everything you change FIRST.
The UEFI procedure posted on YouTube DOES work, if you follow the instructions EXACTLY. I have used it myself, but then again, I don't specify a separate /home partition, and neither does the video. The video also does not specify anything concerning the use of multiple drives, either.
What the video basically does is to walk you through freeing up disk space for the LL install in Windows, creating a UEFI boot partition, installing LL in legacy mode, and installing the UEFI version of Grub from the Ubuntu LiveCD. Since you said that you're having issues with LL in legacy mode as well, you will need THAT going before proceeding.
What got me the time or two I've used this method was that one of the commands goes almost to the end of the screen, adds a space, then wraps to the following line. This is hard to determine from watching the video - which, by its very nature, also does not allow you to copy and paste the text. Reading the comments I left about the video will shed more light on that...

A gun in your hand is worth more than a whole police force on the phone.
