tek dedicated storage turn into s+ dedicated storage then it cant be used anymore?
so i have a weird problem on my ark. when making normal tek dedicated storage boxes, it works and i can access its inventory ect. but when i log out, and back in then it changed into the S+ version. then i can only deposit items but cannot access its inventory anymore, even when i dismantle it, i get ammonite bile in return

This is because you are running the S+ mod contrary to it's recommended config.
if you are using S+ you are recommended to disable the integrated structures plus items that were introduced into the vanilla game in the homestead patch.

Wild card stuffed up the implementation. They duplicated the asset names and so therefore on restart the game can convert between the duplicates.

Your options:

1. Roll with it knowing its stuffed up and you're ignoring the recommended config.

2. Look up the wiki on how to disable the integrated structures plus components and rely only on the true S+ items.

3. Manually delete the asset files from the game/mod knowing they may be replaced by the game during the next patch/validation.

Also FYI you're not meant to have access to the inventory. When the S+ item was made there was no game mechanic to render an inventory slot count of 10000.

It's also a neat trick to be able to store pretty much anything in them without having to mess around with files.
Just use transfer gun to the non s+ box and when relogged you got an S+ box with the new item :)

like the normal tek box i could go into inventory to be able to do resource pulling from all nearby harvest dinos.. thats why i mention the going into inventory

is there a way to disable the vanilla s+ integration via server settings?

Yes... Its all on the wiki go check it out.

But the result of which is you'll only have the S+ version which DOES NOT have inventory access.

I know why you mentioned it I am just explaining why the two are handled differently.
