The difference is what RPC method is being called under the hood. From the docs:
web3.persal.getAccountsreturns a list of accounts the node controls by using the provider and calling the RPC methodpersonal_listAccounts.The results are the same as
web3.eth.getAccounts()except that calls the RPC methodeth_accounts.

Sorry to ask because this is another question, so if you knew tell me please. Actually I am now connecting to azure blockchain service(working on quorum protocol), and two methods return totally different addresses. Can you guess why this happens ? – 久保圭司 Feb 3 '20 at 14:15
