Describe the bug

I have three drives in my system: my root drive, a hard drive, and an ssd. I have set the cache_dir to a directory on my ssd and when I load images on my hard drive they show up in that directory, so I know that it's working correctly. However, when I reboot, the cached images remain but when I load their counterparts on my hard drive it's as if they were never cached.

Minimal reproducer

Due to the nature of this issue, I'm not sure what to put here. I suppose you could reproduce the issue if you have a setup similar to mine: the media being on one drive and the cache_dir on another, with neither of them being the root drive.

Anything else?

No response

Validations

• [X] I tried the latest nightly build, and the issue is still reproducible
• [X] I updated the debug information (yazi --debug) input box to the nightly that I tried
• [X] I can reproduce it after disabling all custom configs/plugins (mv ~/.config/yazi ~/.config/yazi-backup)

[sxyazi]

I can't reproduce it.

Yazi uses file's path and mtime as the unique id for caching:

Are you sure the mtime of your files hasn't changed?
