I doubt the short distance/length that a Fiber Optic
connected from a Hard Drive to the motherboard
would cause any significant skew.

If you mean a fibre optic cable, these are exclusively serial devices. It
would not be possible to operate a number of fibres as a parallel data
link because they suffer skew in the transmission times as well. Although
the effect is less marked than it is with copper, the ability to transmit
much shorter pulses of light brings the problem firmly back to the fore
again.
