Do I have enough computer power to do this?

Just recently purchased a Behringer AIR X18 that I'm going to be using both live and in the studio for multi track recording. I've got this old laptop that I want to use to record the tracks via USB live, and then I'll take the files and mix them down on my good computer at home. Think these specs can handle recording 16 tracks at 48khz at the same time? 44.1khz?

1.5ghz dual core (Intel Atom N550)
2gb ddr2 ram
250gb hard drive
Windows 10

I'll test it out once everything gets here, but just thought I'd ask.
 
My gut says it will struggle, but why don't you just try it?
You don't actually need sources of audio to prove the theory.

Just set up and record the appropriate number of channels of silence, for a a realistic length of time. 5 minute sessions, perhaps?
