If they both use SATA 6gbps and assuming you have a SATA cable, I don't see why they wouldn't work unless one was broken. Could you explain a bit more, perhaps giving model numbers or what you have tried?

If your motherboard and HDD both have some kind of SATA, it will work. If the HDD's are IDE, you will most likely have issues.

 

Connecting SSD's also just works, maybe just not at the rated max speeds if they aren't the same.

This is my motherboard https://pcpartpicker.com/product/2Phj4D/asus-strix-z270-e-gaming-atx-lga1151-motherboard-strix-z270-e-gaming

 

and this is my hard drive https://pcpartpicker.com/product/CbL7YJ/seagate-barracuda-2tb-35-7200rpm-internal-hard-drive-st2000dm006

 

I was just a little worried because it wasnt on the supported part sheet
