Do uncompression of disk drives affects my Database?

Apr 20th, 2005

Hi,
Accidentally one the member has compressed the disk drives in the SQL Server. Before we go ahead an uncompress the disk drives, we need to make sure that the database is unaffected.

1. What is the normal database compression ratio when Hard Disk is compressed?
2. Do uncompression of the Hard Disk will affect the database integrity?
3. If teh disk drives are uncompressed, what is the expected space the database would take?

Thank you very much.

regards,
Philips
