Note: I haven't watched Band of Brothers (yet). Although there are some inaccuracies (like hair length and style for marines in the 50's), overall this is a great show. The three primary characters are portrayed well (although I think Sledge needed more time spent on character development). The Pacific is still well-done and definitely worth seeing. I think watching it with an open mind, and avoiding comparisons, it is a good way to approach it.
