That should work fine, provided you make the manifold as unrestrictive as possible.
Are you making the HDD waterblocks yourself or buying them.

Well, unfortunately since I have no machining skills at all, I'm purchasing the manifold and blocks. The only manifold I could find that would fit my needs is a right angle jobber. As for the blocks, I was thinking about using the Innovatek HD-O-Matic Micros, and switching the fittings to 3/8" barbs.

Of all of the secondary blocks, the gpu is probably the most important.
I would be tempted to run two of the HDD blocks in series, and the NB with the other HDD block also in series. They will get sufficient flow to keep these low poewr devices cool, while the gpu block will still get enough flow to keep it as it will most likely be the least restrictive path.

Actually the main reason I'm even watercooling is not to OC, I don't really have any plans for that with this system. I'm doing this more for the HDDs. For some reasons or another, every summer I lose a drive to the ol' click o death. Since it happens just about every summer, and my AC isn't helping enough, I figured I'd try cooling the drives. So I figure any GPU block of reasonable quality should suffice.
