 While it does not matter where the ROM files are placed, it is often easiest to put them somewhere that makes sense in relation to the PND for easy browsing. A good place to put them would be either in a clearly-named folder in the root of the SD card (e.g. /PS1) or in the same folder as the emulator PND (e.g. /pandora/menu/PS1). It does not matter how many ROM files are in the folder, or what directory structure is used.

+PCSX-ReARMed supports loading BIOSes. A minimum of one BIOS should be copied to [sd card]/pandora/appdata/pcsx_rearmed/bios/ ..and then selected in options->bios/plugins menu.
 Loading a BIOS can potentially fix tons of bugs. It is highly recommended to activate it. A BIOS file is not strictly necessary, but not all games will work correctly without one.
