Compress drive to save disk space

A previous user of a computer with XP Home checked "Compress drive to
save disk space" on a data drive. The drive is 300GB, and it has 275GB
of compressed data. What happens if I uncheck the selection? Will the
compressed files be expanded back to their normal size? How much space
has to be available on the drive to make this happen? What happens if
not enough space is available?
