I dragged and drop some PSD files into a project in Illustrator CS5.
I want to remove them from my desktop, but if I do that, then they will disappear from my project.

What can I do in my project now (already opened with these files), to copy all current PSDs from desktop so I can delete them from my desktop ?

What you are trying to do is to embed the file to your project, rather than linking it.

That can be done by

Selecting the file in the Links panel (Window→Links), and choosing Embed Image from the dropdown menu.



Note, that embedding the images can (and most likely significantly) increase your artwork size.
