Unnecessary.
Please note my corrections to your post.

Somebody who understands 'drill down' in this context may answer your question.

Rover already corrected your sentence which started "Are both". It is "Do both".

Do the sentences have the same meaning?
Do the two sentences have the same meaning?

Do the two sentences have the same meaning?
