Hello,
The exact requirements are linked below.

Your server does exceed the minimum requirements. The issue is that 2016 wasn't validated on the T610. You may run into driver issues for the install. You'll also want to make sure you have your data backed up first, in case the install does proceed without driver issues. An in place upgrade wouldn't be an option.
