    EDITED=>>Yes, you do leave it blank.  Originally I thought you were referring to the actual pst file.  :)

    2) If I select "Search this computer..." it will scan the filer and pick up all the PST's. Correct?

    Yes, it will scan the filer to find the PST's

    3) I do NOT want it to automatically import any PST's. I am assuming it will only import the PST's if I select the PST and select Migrate. Correct?

    Correct, by default the status should be Do Not Migrate.  From the Admin help: This is the normal state when a PST file has been found. When you are ready for the PST file to be migrated you must manually change the state to Ready to copy by editing the properties of the PST file.
     

    4) Would scanning the Filer impact performance in anyway?

    There will be some overhead but not too much.  I would doubt you notice anything.
