Anyone done a review comparing these three? Is there someone here that uses Encase or Pro-discover that would like to help me with one? I can provide OnlineDFS 30 day key w full version to anyone who wants to help me with a review.
Please let me know!
Here maybe this will help someone want a free 30 trial of the software to help me review it or even just help me with anther perspective of what you thought of it.

I use both EnCase and ProDiscover pretty regularly. I'm not sure what it is you need help with, though.
Thanks for offering to take a look at it. I want to post this answer here as well because I think it's a common misconception about OnlineDFS.
DD image with OnlineDFS explained
From the manual
Disk image format
The OnLineDFS disk mirroring tool creates an image of the disk that is an identical bit-stream copy. The data is in the same format as that produced by other tools, such as the widely-accepted “dd” program. Therefore, a disk image made by OnLineDFS can then be analyzed by OnLineDFS tools or any other tools available to analyze disk images.
To use a disk image analysis tool (other than OnLineDFS), you will need to know where the disk image has been stored. This can be determined in a number of different ways. The image location is one of the “properties” reported at the bottom of the Acquired Disk Image Display screen. The “data file location” property records the full path to the directory where the image is stored on the OnLineDFS machine, and the “data file name” property records the name of the image. Combining these fields in the format data file location / data file name (without spaces) provides the full path location of the image file.
The image location is also recorded in the Inquiry Log.
It may be quicker to search the Inquiry Log for the data file location than to examine the properties displayed on the Acquired Disk Image Display screen because the Acquired Disk Image Display screen may take a while to load. However, it is important to confirm that the disk image process completed successfully, and this information is stored as the “result” property.
Does anyone else want to try the software out?
