It's pretty easy:

If you're using split-merged sets do the following:

- keep your calspeed.zip romset in a romfolder
- keep a rompath subfolder called "calspeed" in a romfolder
- keep a rompath subfolder called "calspeda" in a romfolder
- put calspeed.chd (525.720.024 bytes) in the calspeed subfolder
- put calspeda.chd (511.316.095 bytes) in the calspeda subfolder


If you're using full-merged sets do the following:
- keep your calspeed.zip romset in a romfolder
- keep a rompath subfolder called "calspeed" in a romfolder
- keep both chds in that calspeed subfolder
- remove any instance of a calspeda folder



What you most likely did is: keeping full merged sets but split up the chds. So clrmamepro was correctly telling you:

unneeded fake clone: calspeda (merge to: calspeed)
wrong placed chd: calspeda\calspeda.chd (move to set: calspeed)

First line complains about a calspeda folder which isn't needed if you keep sets merged (plus calspeda is 100% identical to its parent rom-wise). And it tells you to move it to calspeed.
Second line tells you about the wrong placed chd. It should belong to calspeed. Again, cmpro tells you to move it.

Now if you manually moved calspeda.chd to calspeed but didn't remove the calspeda subfolder, cmpro will tell you again: unneeded fake clone: calspeda (merge to: calspeed) since it's not needed.
