It's a simple drag and drop. Nothing to muss with. The DeDRM plug in works automagically as the books are added to Calibre.
Minor nit: I prefer using the Add Books functionality in calibre to add books and remove the DRM. When I tried dragging books to calibre, at times there were some oddities in handling the files.
