I believe the answer is:

drawers

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'the storage units' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being plural nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'reward is returned with open satisfaction' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
an anagram of 'reward' is 'drawer' which is within the answer.
A single letter 's' remains which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'to' acts as a link.
