two possibilities:

1.  cluster size

what 'size' are you looking at?

the cluster size on the two disk drives are possibly not
the same (perhaps even the file systems are not the same)
so the wasted space in each may be different.

try copying them both to the same machine (same disk volume)
and compare the sizes.

***
2.  packages

Another possiblility is that you are statically linked to
a package on one machine but (because your delphi build
environment settings are different) are using a "runtime
package" on the other machine.    The EXE with the static
libs would be larger.
