The Clone method returns a new array (a shallow copy) object containing all the elements in the original array. The CopyTo method copies the elements into another existing array. Both perform a shallow copy. A shallow copy means the contents (each array element) contains references to the same object as the elements in the original array. A deep copy would create a new instance of each element's object, resulting in a different, yet identical objects.
