I guess the difference is that on the qcow2 files, the full(maximum) size is
not showing up.

qemu-img info junk.img shows:

image: junk.img
file format: qcow2
virtual size: 10G (10737418240 bytes)
disk size: 140K
cluster_size: 65536


ls -lash junk.img  shows:

140K -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 193K Jun  8 11:11 junk.img

The raw files I have made show up the same as yours.
