The Kobo firmware doesn't care as long as you don't use a directory with a filename starting with a '.' which makes it a hidden directory. Personally, I prefer to copy the ebooks into a subdirectory. Just makes things easier to organize. It also keeps me from exceeding the number of entries in the root directory (65534 with the additional proviso that long file names use more than one entry).
