Code from the System.Private.CoreLib.dll:

public static T[] GetSubArray(T[] array, Range range)
{
    if (array == null)
    {
        ThrowHelper.ThrowArgumentNullException(ExceptionArgument.array);
    }
    (int Offset, int Length) offsetAndLength = range.GetOffsetAndLength(array.Length);
    int item = offsetAndLength.Offset;
    int item2 = offsetAndLength.Length;
    if (default(T) != null || typeof(T[]) == array.GetType())
    {
        if (item2 == 0)
        {
            return Array.Empty();
        }
        T[] array2 = new T[item2];
        Buffer.Memmove(ref Unsafe.As(ref array2.GetRawSzArrayData()), ref Unsafe.Add(ref Unsafe.As(ref array.GetRawSzArrayData()), item), (uint)item2);
        return array2;
    }
    T[] array3 = (T[])Array.CreateInstance(array.GetType().GetElementType(), item2);
    Array.Copy(array, item, array3, 0, item2);
    return array3;
