There is no compatibility for hard drives - if the motherboard has the necessary connections for your hard drive, then it's fine.
For GPUs, just be aware what type of PCIe the mobo supports (1, 1.1, 2.0, or 3.0). Typically PCIe is backwards compatible, but you don't want to go farther back than PCIe 2.0.

What's your point? So, what if it's an IDE motherboard? If he has an IDE hard drive with IDE connections on the motherboard then he's fine. Same if he has a SATA hard drive with a motherboard that has SATA connections - that's MY point.
