Since you successfully hooked up the ZIP-drive to your Supra harddisk, i suppose the hardware is correctly set up and you checked ID-numbers and termination.

Basically, all you need now is a decent harddisk-driver that works with the Supra as well as with the ZIP-drive.
I recommend either HDDriver by Uwe Seimet or HuSHi of the SCSI-Tools - But i do not know wether they work with the Supra.
Both will work fine with the ZIP-drive.

However, to transfer data between your PC and your ST you need to know that the formats of PC-DOS and GEMDOS are only identical below 32 MB. So you either have to partition your ZIP-disk to 3 32 MB partitions or you also have to use a file-system driver that can handle PC-DOS partitions beyond 32 MB, such as BIGDOS or the operating system MagiC or MiNT.
