There's a USB 2.0 port on the front of the PS3. Connect your USB cable to that port. Then connect some form of flash drive or hard drive to that USB cable. If the hard drive requires you to turn it on, turn it on.

That's how you connect the two.

EDIT:

Of course, that's not exactly what you're looking for. Here's some more:

1.) Format your hard drive or flash drive to fat32.

2.) Place your video files onto the flash/hard drive. (Preferably with this folder structure:

root-->VIDEO-->video files
root-->MUSIC-->audio files
root-->PHOTO-->picture files

Additionally, you can create a "PS3" folder in the root of your drive with the VIDEO/MUSIC/PHOTO folders in it.)

3.) Connect your drive with your PS3.

4.) Go to the Video tab, select the USB device (with X or Triangle + "Display All"), navigate to your video file.

5.) Press Triangle, select "Copy." (Or "Copy Multiple" if it's possible.)

6.) Wait for the copying to finish.

7.) Go back to the Video tab. There should be a new folder or file, depending on how you choose to sort things.

8.) Click, and watch.
