3" Double-sided disk drive with a capacity of 400k\
|
|
Could load 20k in 1 seconde, which was quite fast at that time.
|
|
|
|
The name of the operating system was Stratsed and was somehow compatible with the Sedoric (Atmos OS)
|
|
|
|
The disk controller was built-in the Telestrat, thus only "slave" disk drives had to be bought (1800fr each in 86).

The Oric Telestrat is the successor of the [Oric 1](/museum/oric-1/) and [Oric Atmos](/museum/oric-atmos/) with which it is compatible. It was launched some months after Oric was bought by Euréka, a French company in 1985.
|
|
|
|
It was designed especially for telecommunications, like the [Goupil 2](/museum/smt-goupil-2/), the [Thomson TO-9+](/museum/thomson-to-9-plus/) or the [Exeltel](/museum/exelvision-exeltel/). It was designed to be used with the Minitel (French videotext terminal): it has a special ROM (8 KB) enabling the Telestrat to act as a videotext server.
|
|
|
|
A 3" floppy disk drive was available (400 KB) which run under StradSED (the Oric operating system, compatible with the old Oric DOS).
|
|
|
|
Several ROM cartridges were developed for this machine: Midi software (unreleased), Hyper Basic (compiled basic), Telematic Basic (designed for telecommunications), etc...
