Or rather, you should know what it does, so you can decide whether it should 
be checked or not...

Digikam has the possibility to show only the edited versions (if present) and 
hide the original files (if digikam 'knows' which is the edited version). This 
helps reducing clutter in the interface. If there's no edited version, the raw 
file will of course be shown. 

Checking the mentioned boxes forces Digikam to show the originals even in the 
presence of an edited version. These options only change what you see, they 
don't change what's actually saved/stored on your HDD or in the database. So 
playing with them can't do any harm.
